ECAN(T) is an acronym of the words End Child Abuse and Neglect Tanzania. The organization was registered in May 2017 as a platform to cater for disadvantaged kids, adolescent girls and young women especially in marginalized and rural communities, as well as youth empowerment. The approach is based on putting young people at the frontline for positive change.
Most of the NGOs focus much of their services in urban areas while the majorities in rural areas are left without help. That is where we come in. Since the main objective of the organization is to create sustainable community development; We decided to operate in both rural and urban areas in order to help children, adolescent girls, young women and young people to transition safe from childhood into productive adulthood.
