Who We Are

Helping Elders and Disabled Organisation (HEDO) is a Tanzanian nonprofit dedicated to empowering elders, children, and youth with disabilities through digital inclusion, assistive technologies, health support, inclusive education, and community-driven protection.

Through training, advocacy, and technological innovation, we strive to improve dignity, independence, and equal opportunities for all.
