Halima was abandoned by her husband last year while she was pregnant (of the baby in the picture), leaving her without a source of income, feeling very sick and thus with a one and a half year of rent in debt. A couple of months ago, although she tried to explain the situation in which she finds herself, the landlord pursuez her so she would pay. Due to this situation, Halima gets up at 4 in the morning, leaves her house at 5 with her 3 children and hodes all day in the city (at this moment partly at Perfect Vision) and then returns at night so she will not face the landlord. Thanks to a generous donation, we were able to pay for her rent.
Now, Halima will be able to live without worries and will be able to start working again (Halima’s dream is to open a new business)

Naomi is the creative hands and patient heart behind our sewing program at Perfect Vision Women Tanzania. As our Sewing Instructor, she teaches girls and young women valuable tailoring skills—from basic stitches to advanced garment making—that not only build confidence but also open doors to economic independence.
With a calm and nurturing spirit, Naomi does more than just teach—she mentors. She understands that every thread she guides is not just shaping fabric, but shaping futures. Whether she’s helping a beginner thread a needle for the first time or supporting a girl to design her first dress, Naomi meets every student with kindness, patience, and encouragement.
Her dedication to empowering others through skill-building is at the core of our Crafting Her Future program. Naomi is not only a teacher—she’s a quiet force of transformation, giving girls the tools to dream bigger and stand taller.
Christine, fondly known as Tina, is the heart of our volunteer program. She ensures that every volunteer who joins Perfect Vision Women Tanzania feels welcomed, supported, and fully engaged in our mission. From coordinating daily activities to translating and bridging communication gaps, Tina plays a vital role in creating meaningful volunteer experiences.
But Tina’s journey with Perfect Vision began long before she became a coordinator. In 2020, she was one of the very first women empowered by Mama Happy—the founder of our organization. What started as a chance to rebuild her life grew into a deep calling to give back.
Inspired by Mama Happy’s vision and the impact it had on her personally, Tina returned—not just as a beneficiary, but as a leader. Today, she carries forward the spirit of empowerment she once received, helping others the same way she was once helped.
Her story is one of transformation, resilience, and full-circle purpose—and we’re proud to have her as part of our leadership team.
Perfect Vision Women Tanzania was born from my mother’s heart—Mama Happy, a woman whose passion for empowering vulnerable women and girls lit up every space she entered. In 2020, when she passed away, my world fell apart.
In the midst of grief, I was faced with a decision that would change my life forever. I chose to leave my job and step into the work my mother had started. Not because it was easy—but because I knew her mission was too important to stop. I couldn’t let her dream die with her.
Taking over Perfect Vision was not just a responsibility—it was a promise I made at her graveside: that I would continue what she began, no matter how hard it got. And every day since, I’ve poured my heart into this journey—fighting for every girl to stay in school, for every woman to find her strength, and for every forgotten voice to be heard.
This is more than work. It’s legacy. It’s love. It’s Mama Happy’s spirit—alive in everything we do.
