Sobre nosotros

Young Strong Mothers Foundation (YSMF) is registered as a non-governmental, non-profit and non partisan organization. It was officially registered in February 9, 2015. YSMF operates in Tanzania mainland with the main office located in Morogoro Municipality.
YSMF was founded by Ms. Jackie Leonard Bomboma, a survivor of teenage pregnancy, together with her daughter Rose Samwel Mayunga with the aim of using their rough past and struggle to find opportunities and achievement stories as a weapon to inspire, empower, motivate, advocate and fight against young mother’s discrimination and stigmas to restore their pathways to desired human life destinies.

Our vision
To provide an opportunity for vulnerable young mothers and their children to address their health, social, education, legal and financial needs.

Our mission

We mainly focus on:
