The Hoja Project was set up as a UK registered charity in 2005 and since 2013 has now run under the charity registration of COCO (Comrades Of Children Overseas). COCO has supported Hoja since the very early days, so this represents no real change in the day-to-day operation of Hoja.

COCO's webpage on Hoja can be found here, and they regularly produce news on all their projects. This blog is updated on a volunteer basis, so new posts tend to be every few months.

Videos

In August 2009, I filmed some of our sponsored students talking about themselves and their school. These are the first two videos I have edited of the students.  If you want to use these videos in schools, please do get in touch and we can send your students responses out to our current students in Tanzania.

There's also a lot of extra footage which could do with translating from Swahili if you are able to volunteer to help with this.

We also have two versions of our video, Voices of Mpandangindo. It was filmed before The Hoja Project really got going, and so things have moved along a lot since then.
