Led from an idea presented by Stellah Haule, this DCF-funded learning and accountability project engaged seven orphanage centres in Dar es Salaam. Children and caregivers completed prepared questionnaires and shared stories from both perspectives. The work examined whether charitable activities reflected real priorities and informed the Je Wanatabasamu Magazine, now available in hard and digital copies.

Approved Project Description
Je Wanatabasamu was a Don Charity Foundation learning and accountability project developed from an idea presented by Foundation member Stellah Haule. DCF funded the full TZS 70,000 implementation cost from its general funds and supported field engagement across seven orphanage centres in Dar es Salaam. The project was designed to move beyond assumptions about charitable support by listening directly to children and caregivers. Prepared questionnaires were completed, stories were gathered from both perspectives, and field activity and filming helped document what participants valued, what they lacked and what they wanted future charitable visits to understand. The resulting learning informed the Je Wanatabasamu Magazine, now available in hard-copy and digital formats. Stellah Haule is credited for presenting and leading the project idea. The public report does not estimate the number of children, caregivers or questionnaires because a consolidated count has not been retained.
