Our History

Batai Foundation is a Non-Governmental Organization registered under the Non-Governmental Organizations Act, No. 24 of 2002 of the United Republic of Tanzania.

The organization was established to address the growing gap between urban and rural youth opportunities. Many young people in rural areas face limited access to education, emerging technologies, social services, and economic opportunities. BATAI FOUNDATION exists to change that reality.

Our Vision

Envision a country where all youth in rural areas are inspired and empowered to realize the future they desire.

Our Mission

To become a leading organization that connects youth to existing opportunities for personal, social, and economic development.
