Mambo

Mambo is a small village with about 5000 inhabitants, who on average have an income of less than one dollar a day. Development is still essential at all levels and in almost every aspect of life. The Eco Lodge is contributing to the development of its close neighbour.

ViewPoint

The Lodge is situated at an altitude of 1900 meters and from there you can enjoy breath-taking views over the Pare Mountains, the Mkomazi National Park and to Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest mountain. Moreover, ViewPoint also refers to the vision with which we work in partnership with Mambo village.

Extended Partnership

As well as providing a unique accommodation experience, MamboViewPoint acts as a link between individual donors from the rich part of the world and the inhabitants of the Usambara Mountains with the aim of funding various village projects.

The precondition for our support for these projects is that they should not so much be based upon the principle of giving aid, but rather upon the intention of cooperation with equality and empowerment the guiding principles. MamboViewPoint is assisting in framing project plans, drafting proposals and the implementation and continuity of the projects. In the implementation phase, western partners can combine volunteer work with a comfortable stay at the Lodge. The expenses for overheads are reduced to a minimum and donor partners have direct insight into the way the money is spent, and experience the final outcome. When you have returned home we will keep an eye on the project. Many relatively minor things can produce a tremendous improvement for inhabitants of the Usambara Mountains. Small scale initiatives from individual people can effectively be guided and supported this way. See the Project page. Along with your practical help, you will have a holiday in the Usambara Mountains, guaranteeing an unforgettable natural and cultural experience.

"Congratulations for the Eco Lodge and all your wonderful projects in the village. Looking forward to coming back and supporting your projects further."
