The current mission of the PeerCorps Centre for Education and Youth Development (CEYD) is to increase the operational capacity of local community organizations in Tanzania that are actively involved in the care and education of orphaned children and young adults whose lives and future prospects are limited by poverty through training and financial support. The CEYD partners with international institutions of higher education and nonprofit nongovernmental charitable organizations to enable a transfer of educational and financial resources necessary for improving the performance of local community organizations. The CEYD’s strategic goal is to progressively build the capacity of local community organizations to a point where they could independently sustain and expand their operations.
