Welcome to

Assalam Community Foundation

Since 2017, the Assalam Community Foundation (ACF) has been committed to creating a brighter future for Zanzibar from our home in Kizimkazi. We believe in the power of education, community, and sustainability to bring hope to children and women.

By empowering people with love and support, we work directly with local communities to enable them to flourish and become engaged members of society. We are dedicated to having a significant impact, from educating women and children to encouraging sustainable living at our Ecolodge in Zanzibar.

Come along on this adventure with us! Your assistance can genuinely affect lives, whether you choose to volunteer, give, sponsor, or collaborate.
