MamboSteunPunt was founded in 2010. It is a Dutch foundation striving to contribute to the development of Mambo area by arranging funding for local projects.
MamboSteunPunt’s goal is to enhance the quality of life for people living in the area of Mambo. Not by aid, but by trade, education, transfer of knowledge and capacity building.
In order to reach this goal we support JamiiSawa, a local Tanzanian foundation, by capacity building and funding. JamiiSawa serves as a platform and assists local people to take up their responsibilities and work together as a community, in order to outgrow poverty. JamiiSawa is active on a day to day basis in the projects we fund.
Another partner is MamboViewPoint ecolodge. Herman Erdtsieck and Marion Neidt started this lodge in 2009, which serves as an economic base for local development in Mambo.
MamboSteunPunt is ANBI registered, which means as much of the funding as possible is invested in the projects and we meet up to the administrative duties of an ANBI foundation. This also means that donations to MamboSteunPunt are tax-deductable in the Netherlands
