Unite built the Unite Food Program (UFP) Outpost in partnership with business owner and project manager Baraka Sadaam Saul. A rice and maize milling center (along with living quarters for the work team) was constructed and equipped to serve thousands of people living across five villages in the Sumbawanga region of Tanzania (not far from the Zambian border). Prior to the UFP Outpost, there were no services in the area and villagers had to walk extremely long distances to mill their maize and thresh their rice. In addition to the mills, Unite has purchased land on which we have built gardens that are providing essential fruits and vegetables to the community as well as providing fertile lands for Unite Scholars to rent, plant, and harvest their own organic crops (to then be resold back to UFP).
