Hello! Jambo?
My name is Zuma. I’m the founder and director of Cheti NGO and Mchokodo (a Tour Company) all located in Arusha, Tanzania. Im also a husband and a father of two. Cheti non-profit organization focuses on supporting indigent children and families in our community.
Cheti schools are the institutions that are supported by CHETI organization in Tanzania. These schools are aiming at providing quality education to Tanzanian children in different levels. The institutions involve Day care, Nursery schools, Primary school and Secondary school.
