EXPLORE WITH PURPOSE KIDS PROGRAM
EWP-4K
Kids Helping Kids - Why it matters.
At Explore With Purpose, we believe that even the youngest among us have the power to create lasting change. Our kids’ program invites children to get involved in fundraising to support children in rural Tanzania—empowering them to take action, share their passions, and make a difference.
Teaching kids about philanthropy is a powerful tool for shaping compassionate, empathetic individuals who grow up understanding the importance of giving. When children actively participate in helping others, they not only learn the value of generosity but also gain a deeper understanding of the challenges faced by their peers around the world.
The EWP-4K program empowers kids to raise funds and make a difference in the lives of children in rural Tanzania through creative fundraising efforts and community engagement.
Our Foundational Beliefs
- Philanthropy can be taught at an early age.
- There is no act of kindness too small.
- Sometimes the littlest hands are capable of making the biggest difference.
- Every individual has a gift and a passion they can use to make lasting impact.
- It is empowering to allow children to creatively find ways to give back to others.
Our Why
We are passionate about teaching kids that no act of kindness is too small. Whether it’s a penny, a smile, or a simple gesture, every effort counts. Through fundraising, children learn that their actions can spark real change, and that they can be the difference in the lives of others. It’s our belief that sometimes the littlest hands are capable of making the biggest difference.
Our How
We believe that children have unique talents and passions that, when channeled into purposeful action, can make a profound impact. Through our partnerships with other NGOs, lodges, and local communities, kids involved in the EWP-4K program are given the tools to fundraise, connect, and learn from one another—building bridges between cultures and shaping a brighter future for all.
Our What
Explore With Purpose is a nonprofit organization focused on connecting people to conservation and community empowerment projects in Africa. By partnering with local communities and organizations, we amplify the voices of those in need, and create lasting connections between people from all walks of life.
Empowering the Next Generation of Change-Makers
Philanthropy is a powerful force—and by teaching kids to give from an early age, we are nurturing a generation of compassionate individuals ready to make the world a better place. Together, we can create positive change for children in rural Tanzania, all while inspiring young hearts and minds to lead with kindness and compassion.
