Safe Water Program for Schools - Tanzania

| Tanzania | Ngorongoro


Sanctuary Retreats Philanthropy, in cooperation with Vestergaard (LifeStraw), promotes access to safe water for Maasai students in Tanzania through the “Safe Water for Schools” initiative. The project distributes filters to isolated schools where drinking water is scarce. So far, more than 18,000 students near the Ngorongoro crater have benefited from the intervention. Each filter can purify up to 100,000 litres of water, lasting three to five years, without the need for electricity, batteries or chemicals. It removes 99.99% of viruses, bacteria and parasites, helping to prevent disease and support children's health.

Guests of the Ngorongoro Sanctuary can participate directly by purchasing a filter before departure and taking part in its installation at the school, with a demonstration led by the AKP coordinator. Ensuring clean water is a concrete step towards positive and lasting change in local communities.


Sanctuary Ngorongoro Crater Camp

Surrounded by the outstanding natural beauty of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Sanctuary Ngorongoro Crater Camp offers an exclusive and unforgettable safari experience. Located close to the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater, the camp enjoys a privileged position for exploring one of Africa's seven natural wonders, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The crater, formed two to three million years ago after a massive volcanic eruption, is the largest inactive, uninterrupted and unfilled volcanic caldera in the world. This geological wonder is home to one of the highest concentrations of wildlife in Africa, including the legendary ‘Big Five’ - lion, leopard, elephant, rhinoceros and buffalo - along with zebra, hippo, flamingo and many other species.

The camp combines luxury with authentic safari charm. Its spacious tents, equipped with comfortable beds, private bathrooms with hot water and outdoor seating areas, offer an intimate and cosy retreat. Guests can relax after the safari while enjoying fine meals, prepared with fresh ingredients and inspired by local and international flavours. Guests can choose to dine in the common room, outdoors under the African sky or in the privacy of their own tent.Activities include game drives in the crater, explorations on foot in the surrounding forest and cultural visits to Maasai villages to immerse oneself in local culture and traditions. The camp also stands out for its commitment to sustainability, supporting biodiversity conservation and local communities.

The Sanctuary Ngorongoro Crater Camp represents the perfect combination of adventure, comfort and cultural discovery, making it a must-visit stop for anyone visiting Tanzania, one of Africa's most spectacular destinations.
