A human approach

Every life matters. Your support reaches families, mothers and children who rely on accessible, dignified healthcare. You help bring essential care directly to the people who need it most. With humanity, respect and hope.

Immediate local impact

Instead of disappearing into the machinery of a global charity, you help us run medical base camps that treat people who would otherwise go without care. Soon, your contribution will help fund an ambulance to reach families living far beyond walking distance.

Driven by locals supported from NL

Our strength is our unique partnership: strategic coordination from the Netherlands, real hands-on action by Tanzanian doctors who understand the challenges better than anyone. Together, we build healthcare with the community, not for the community.

6.1 testimonial (1)
Thanks to the insurance card provided by Martus Foundation, we were able to visit the healthcare center and get treatment for malaria. We even received a mosquito net so that it won’t happen again!

6.2Testimonial1
This camp was so important for our students. Covering topics like gender-based violence opened eyes for both girls and boys. The confidential box provided by Martus Foundation gave students a safe way to report sensitive cases, and the support the team provided was exactly what our community needed.

The MomSafe camp, they used an ultrasound to check on my pregnancy, something I had never had access to before. Hearing my baby’s heartbeat for the first time made me feel safe and hopeful.

A mom to be, Kahama
