Tanga in Touch supports projects in Tanga, Tanzania. This is a poor region in one of the poorest countries in the world.

• We send recycled computing equipment to schools and help them to use it. We also help local school links where we can.
• We support projects in our link parish, Mapinduzi
• We support the Leprosy Care Centre at Misufini

Hereford Diocese has many links with the Anglican Church in Tanzania. One is with the Diocese of Tanga. Our charity grew from this link. Whitbourne is a village in the North-East of Herefordshire, UK. Our involvement began with the visit of our Rector, Rev. David Howell in 1999.  He set up the links with Misufini and Mapinduzi. Then three parishioners visited in 2001. One was an I.T. teacher.  The computer initiative, and the need for money to fund it, led to the formation in November 2002 of our charity. Now, as well as raising money for the computing initiative, we support the existing links with Misufini Leprosy Centre and the parish of St. Francis, Mapinduzi.
