Founded in 2020 by three passionate occupational therapists, Maishabora was born from a shared conviction: that every child in Tanzania deserves access to high-quality, compassionate, and family-centered rehabilitation services — regardless of their background.
Maishabora was founded in 2020 by three occupational therapists who had witnessed daily the challenges faced by children with developmental and neurological conditions across Tanzania. They established a centre that would provide accessible, high-quality therapy tailored to each child's unique needs.
Our centre was created to serve children with a range of special needs, with a belief that early intervention and consistent support makes a life-changing difference:
