In Ilindi village, Raimonda Mkondoo transformed her family's nutrition and income through a simple vegetable garden supported by the GENTU project. With seeds, training, and guidance, she now grows spinach, tomatoes, and okra at home—providing fresh, healthy meals for her children and earning extra income by selling the surplus. Raimonda’s success has inspired other women in her community to start their own gardens, creating a ripple effect of resilience and self-reliance

At the Itagata Paddy Scheme in Itigi District, over 100 smallholder farmers are now enjoying increased yields thanks to the support of the GENTU project. Through the distribution of 12 kilograms of improved paddy seeds per acre, farmers like those in Utemini hamlet have seen significant improvements in both production and food security. This intervention, coupled with technical support from agriculture officers, has empowered farmers to invest more confidently in their land and inspire others in the community

In partnership with SATF, SEMA has supported vulnerable children in Ikungi District, Singida Region, with essential school supplies, sanitary pads, solar lamps, and health insurance. The initiative also included motivational gifts for students with strong school attendance—promoting quality education, better health, and overall well-being

the Wanamboni Care Group is reaping the rewards of improved groundnut farming, thanks to support from the GENTU project. The group received high-quality groundnut seeds and ongoing agricultural training, which led to increased harvests and better food security. Beyond farming, the group also promotes nutrition education and peer support—empowering members to adopt climate-smart practices and improve family health. Their journey reflects the power of community-led change driven by knowledge, collaboration, and sustainable agriculture.

As part of the GENTU project’s WASH component, with funding from Global Affairs Canada, a boys’ toilet block with 3 stances has been constructed at Kamenyanga Secondary School to promote better hygiene and sanitation. Additionally, the girls' toilet has been enhanced with a hygiene room and incinerator for safe menstrual waste management. A mass handwashing facility has also been installed, supporting healthy habits for all students.
