    The CHISWEA (Children of the Street Welfare Association) Centre in the central Sokoni One area of Arusha City was set up by Simon Panga (elder brother of our partner Francesco), to provide the education and encouragement that street children need to reintegrate into family and community living. They run a Family and Reintegration Programme, a Health Care Programme and an Education Programme which is coordinated by Francesco.
