Tambua Mentorship Program
The Tambua Mentorship Program targets students in high school, universities and colleges, and other tertiary levels, focusing on skills improvement, life after school, talent nurturing, the arts, and celebrating African culture.
The program also addresses academics, sexual education, peer pressure, drug and substance abuse, mental illness, and general life skills, giving students well-rounded support beyond the classroom.
