.....The on-going projects
We aim to work at a grassroots level, meaning we work alongside locals, hearing what their needs and dreams are. We aim to empower more and this is an instrumental factor in our on-going projects. StayAway hopes to inspire and educate thus creating a mentality of 'I can do it!'
....And we are;
24/7/365It is very important to us that when we have no volunteers, our projects are still ticking over. Obviously we don't get nearly as much done, but we do try to stick to our objectives.

Tanzania Projects
The Masai Village
The village of Mondoli juu has had a particularly difficult time developing due to lack of funding and the remoteness of the area. Since the beginning of 2012, StayAway has attempted to work around these impediments and focus on sustainable community projects with what resources are available. The community has alot of needs ranging from Safe Water, Health to Solar power. Mondoli juu is a rural community that lacks any educational facilities. The lack of school facilities makes it difficult to continue school during the rainy seasons, making a tenuous school schedule for the children. The immediate focus at the StayAway in Tanzania is to build a safe water tank for the community and initiate a sustainable project to help the massai families. |
Strict guidelines
Each project our volunteers contribute towards, from projects as simple
as cooking and helping kids, to empowering the massai or building a
school, StayAway has been involved directly.
