VICTORY is for those who DARE
Who we are
JITHUBUTU is a unique community centre based in Arusha, Tanzania supporting young people's growth.
We are tackling the issue of young people facing economical and personal challenges at an age where high education is rarely reachable, family support is fading, work opportunities are limited. Jithubutu's work keeps impacting their lives: some of our members found work thanks to skills they've learnt in the centre, some keep building a strong support base for a balanced mental health, some release their stress through physical activities and arts, and others use Jithubutu centre to network and explore new interests they may have.
What we do
Help occupy the time of young people that are out of school, have less and less support from their families and can't find jobs to provide for themselves. We offer a various range of activities, encourage them to share knowledge and use their time efficiently. The challenge is to keep them off the street and from the risk of falling into addictions.
Serve as a launching pad for new talents in dance, music, urban art and audiovisual creation. As Jithubutu community grows bigger, the centre becomes a networking space. Each of the events we hold are also shared on social media to give young people the visibility they need.
Provide access to culture and help young people improve their skills through workshops and diverse activities. Every members have full access to a wide selection of books, languages classes, carpentry workshops and more. This way, they broaden their horizons and can pursue better job opportunities.
