Introduce my Self.
Personal Introduction
Hello everyone! My name is Raphael Alex Ombade, and I am proud to be Tanzanian, living and working in the vibrant town of Mirerani, located in the Simanjiro District of the Manyara Region.
Before dedicating my life entirely to education and community development, I formerly worked as a Tanzanite miner and blaster right here in the mines of Mirerani. That unique background taught me resilience, hard work, and a deep connection to my local community, which ultimately inspired me to give back to the children and families around me.
My Work & Passion: BlueTanzanite
I am the Founder, Director, and Head Teacher of BlueTanzanite Volunteer Charity Limited (Reg. No. 133371) and the BlueTanzanite English Medium Pre and Primary School. Our organization is dedicated to community development, educational leadership, and youth advocacy, focusing on providing free education, school meals, uniforms, and essential school supplies to vulnerable and orphaned children. Currently, we proudly serve over 300 primary students, helping them build a brighter future through quality learning and care.
Interests, Culture & Hobbies
Beyond my daily work at the school, I am deeply passionate about connecting with people and making a positive impact:
- Helping the Needy: My heart lies in community service, uplifting vulnerable individuals, and supporting children.
- Cultural Exchange & Global Friendship: I love making friends from all over the world, chatting through WhatsApp (
+255 767 829 330), and learning from diverse cultures, traditions, and developed perspectives. - Traveling & Family Life: I love traveling, experiencing new places, and living a warm family life.
- The Arts: I enjoy singing and composing poems that reflect my life's journey, faith, and love for humanity.
Welcome to Tanzania!
I warmly invite people from all corners of the globe to visit Tanzania! Whether you want to experience our rich cultural heritage, witness our breathtaking wildlife, or engage in meaningful volunteer work at our school, our doors are always open. I deeply value international volunteers and partners who wish to share their knowledge, support our children, and experience the warmth of Tanzanian family life firsthand.
Feel free to connect with me—I would love to make a new friend and share our journey with you
