Speaking at a brief graduation ceremony held in Nzega Town Council, TASAF’s facilitator for Nzega Town Council, Ms. Irene Mmasy, said that the households have successfully liberated themselves from abject poverty.

“Today, July 9, 2024, we witness the end of the journey for these 62 households after receiving support from TASAF for nine years since 2015. We have conducted an assessment and found that they have met all the graduation criteria,” said Ms. Mmasy.
