Sukenya Health Center - A Long Term Project $410,000
Current Projects:
Medical Staff Housing - $45,000
Additional medical staff housing is needed so the Tanzanian government can send doctors, nurses and staff to work in the expanded Sukenya Health Center. This project includes three homes which can accommodate up to six medical staff members.
Laboratory for Sukenya Health Center - $55,000
A medical laboratory is essential for adequate diagnosis, monitoring and treatment of patients. An outpatient clinic for eye care, ear care, and physical therapy will follow.

The adage holds true the world around: you have nothing without your health. The Sukenya Dispensary, built in 2015, transformed medical care for this rural community. It provided access to essential medical services such as maternity care, routine screenings and vaccinations.
The dispensary was so successful that the Tanzanian government asked FOTZC to partner with them to build a comprehensive Health Center.
The Maternity Ward and an Operating Room are built.
In past years, FOTZC has responded to difficult times for our partner communities
by delivering food aid during a drought and COVID-19 supplies during the pandemic..
