THE INITIATIVE
Helatec is Elimu’s boldest step yet — an effort to transform how students in underserved schools access learning.
We’ve seen the gaps: schools with too few teachers, classrooms with no books or labs, and students trying to pass with limited support and outdated methods.
Helatec is being built to change that.
It’s a digital platform that will help students revise smarter, learn better, and stay connected to what matters — starting with real curriculum content, tailored for Tanzania’s school system.
WHAT WE’RE BUILDING
Helatec isn’t just another e-learning app.
It’s a long-term system to strengthen school learning where it matters most — from content to access to guidance.
With the right support, we aim to: Deliver curriculum-aligned content, built with care and made accessible to learners everywhere. Train local facilitators to offer support both online and offline. Partner with schools to run real-world pilot tests — and improve from real feedback. Build a foundation we can scale: one class, one subject, one step at a time.
WHY WE’RE FUNDRAISING
Our first prototype is ready.
Now we’re entering the next big phase: developing real content and testing it with students in real schools.
That means creating the first. materials, working with teachers and subject experts, and piloting the platform with early users to learn what works (and what doesn’t).
This is where your support matters most.
