“Be the change you wish to see in the world”

About Me


Women in Action (WIA) is a small community based organization in Arusha, Tanzania. Set up by Elizabeth 'Mama' Mosha in 1993, WIA started out providing homebased care and support to people affected by HIV/AIDS, in particular women and children. The organization has since expanded its services by providing counseling services, small business loans to widows and a tuition free English medium nursery school for vulnerable children. To date, WIA has helped more than 1000 people living with HIV/AIDS and their families. As WIA is not funded by any major donors, all of our work is supported by the help of dedicated local and international volunteers
This page has been created by volunteers in an effort to raise awareness and generate funds to help the kids at WIA. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or if you want to donate. Thank you.

My Interests



Women In Action is located in a town called Arusha in North Eastern Tanzania, although the school itself is located in a rural suberb called Sombertini. Arusha is close to Mt.Kilimanjaro and many of the large safari parks like the Serengeti.



The organisation was set up by Mama Mosha, a former teacher and nurse. She is one of the most dedicated and inspirational women one could hope to meet.
