Malaika of Longido is a non-profit organization based in Longido, Arusha, dedicated to supporting women by providing grants that improve their economic well-being. These grants empower women to support their families, especially their children.

The organization was founded by Eunice Onesmo, a Maasai woman who has devoted her time and resources to helping fellow women break the cycle of poverty.

Through a partnership with International Collaborative USA, we have been able to provide loans to groups of women. These women invest in small businesses, repay the loans with minimal interest, and continue growing their enterprises. This system not only strengthens their livelihoods but also fosters a culture of mutual support during times of need.

Our Vision

To economically empower women and become a strong voice for Maasai young girls in Longido District.

Our Mission

To promote gender equality by improving women’s opportunities in social, economic, and political spheres, while supporting them in challenging harmful cultural practices that make them feel inferior.
