In 2007 UNICEF estimated that there are close to 2,600,000 orphans living in Tanzania. Although there are no comprehensive statistics for the exact number of HIV orphans, it is beyond doubt that HIV prevalence among the Maasai is increasingly becoming a major threat to their nomadic lifestyle. Every year the Maasai pastoral community get accustomed to occasional death resulting from their illiteracy about this killer disease (AIDS) and as a result when they pass away they leave behind destitute and helpless children under the care of their grandparents and other financially disadvantaged people in the society.Maasai people migrate all over the year due to conduct of herdsmen who made them to move around seeking grazing area for cattle and other animals. Most of Maasai people didn’t go to school and are not aware about HIV transmission, they didn’t practice safer sex among their polygamous family and they live below poverty line although some of them have many cattle. Lack of access to information on modern grazing accelerates the Maasai people to deeper poverty. We saw during drought period these herdsmen lost nearly 80% of their animals. This situation has led to many orphans unable to attend to school, get medical care and other basic needs.

consequently Dr. Gilbert Kabati togather with other concerned members of the community decided to give a thought over an idea to start an Non profit organisation to try and deal with the emerging trend back in the year 2006.

Mwaka 2007 UNICEF inakadiriwa kuwa kuna karibu 2,600,000 yatima wanaoishi katika Tanzania. Ingawa hakuna takwimu kamili ya idadi halisi ya watoto yatima VVU, ni zaidi ya shaka kwamba maambukizi ya VVU miongoni mwa Wamasai inazidi kuwa tishio kubwa kwa maisha yao ya kuhamahama. Kila mwaka jumuiya ya Wamasai wafugaji kupata desturi ya kifo mara kwa mara kutokana na ujinga wao kuhusu ugonjwa huu muuaji (UKIMWI) na matokeo yake wakati wao kupita wao kuondoka nyuma ya watoto maskini na wanyonge chini ya uangalizi wa mababu zao na watu wengine wasiojiweza kifedha katika society.Maasai watu kuhamia wote, mwaka huu kutokana na mwenendo wa wafugaji ambao alifanya nao kwa hoja huku akitafuta eneo la malisho ya mifugo na wanyama wengine. Wengi wa watu Wamaasai hakwenda shule na hawana ufahamu kuhusu maambukizi ya VVU, hawakuwa na njia salama miongoni mwa familia zao na wake wengi wanaishi chini ya mstari wa umaskini pamoja na kwamba baadhi yao kuwa ng'ombe wengi. Ukosefu wa upatikanaji wa habari juu ya malisho ya mifugo ya kisasa ya kuchochea kasi ya watu Wamaasai ya umaskini zaidi. Tuliona wakati wa kipindi cha ukame wafugaji hawa waliopotea karibu 80% ya mifugo yao. Hali hii imesababisha watoto wengi yatima kuhudhuria shule, kupata matibabu na mahitaji mengine muhimu.

hivyo Dk Gilbert Kabati togather na wanachama wengine wa jamii husika aliamua kutoa mawazo juu ya wazo kuanza Non faida la kujaribu na kukabiliana na mwenendo kujitokeza nyuma katika mwaka 2006.
