Anton van Doornmalen and his band are playing for Sibusiso

This post is also available in: Dutch German Swahili

Music plays an important role at Sibusiso: the children in Tanzania enjoy singing and dancing together. Music brings joy, connects people and gives energy to our community. The chairman of the board, Anton van Doornmalen, has had a special passion for almost twenty years: together with his professional band, he writes and plays songs about life, inspired by his own experiences. Since 2008 he has been performing very successfully in Germany, and this year benefit concerts also took place in Zevenbergen. The entire proceeds from these concerts benefit Sibusiso.

Would you like to come and listen sometime? Another concert is planned for April 12, 2026. More information about Anton van Doornmalen, his band and their music can be found on his website. http://www.avdmusic.com.

Investing in our organization

Sometimes it is necessary to evaluate our own organization as well. For instance, the organization of automation and IT requires attention. For this reason, Gabry Vlot visited Arusha to advise us in this area.

A mobile clinic truck for Sibusiso

Many children with disabilities do not receive the care they need because the center is too far away, there is no transport, or there are no funds. That is why Sibusiso visits villages with a mobile clinic. Join the fundraising campaign for a mobile clinic truck for Sibusiso. By doing so, you help set this essential care in motion!

Sharing knowledge about treatment methods

Rehabilitation physician in training, Elian König, spent two months working alongside the therapists in Arusha. She is researching how the quality of care at the center can be further improved.

In the center, carpenters and physiotherapists custom-make assistive devices such as wheelchairs and chairs, improving children’s therapy and mobility.
