When the pandemic closed travel world-wide in March of 2020, one might have supposed that a tourism company like Access 2 Tanzania would be negatively impacted long-term. On the contrary, what resulted was an unexpected opportunity to reinvest energy into the fast-growing work of their associated nonprofit, Project Zawadi. The mission of Project Zawad is to ensure Tanzanian children and youth have access to a quality education. After two decades, Project Zawadi has reached a new stage in growth and is poised to have national impact on education in Tanzania.
