'We Are TLM' represents a group of International organisations with a shared vision and mission;

 

'To provide free and curative care for every child with cancer in Tanzania'.

​

Before the fight against children’s cancer in Tanzania began in 2004, 9 out of 10 children with cancer lost their lives. Survival rates of those presenting for treatment have gone from around 5% to 65% in the last number of years. We will not stop however, until we reach every child in Tanzania and give them a chance at survival equal to that of patients in resource rich settings. 

​

​

The Tanzanian based NGO's name, Tumaini La Maisha, means hope for life. In the UK and in Ireland the NGO is called Their lives matter.

​

Although registered separately all three work collaboratively with a single purpose.
