What the charity does
A project based near Kisongo, Arusha, Tanzania. We have a textile centre providing training for local Maasai women so they can generate their own income.

A carpentry workshop is being built, which will provide training for local people, enhancing employment opportunities.

Why there's no Clarity Score yet
The Clarity Score is computed from full financial filing history. Heshima is on the official register but outside the detailed-filing group we currently score (or awaiting its first filings), so we show its official register record instead of a rating. Its score appears automatically once enough filing data exists — never by payment. How scoring works
