This moment was the seed that started Tanzania Life Project. During their first visit to help reactivate a dormant well, co-founders, Jim & Katie Vanderheyden, witnessed the incredible joy these children experienced by simply seeing clean water for the first time. Jim and Katie felt called to bring this most basic need of clean water to others in the area. They founded TLP in 2005. Though now deceased, Jim and Katie’s legacy lives on as TLP continues to successfully install clean water systems to villages most in need in Central Tanzania.
