INTRODUCTION:
IMA World Health is currently registered in Tanzania as “Interchurch Medical Assistance, Inc.” as a non-governmental organization under I-NGO/0009460, dated 16/01/2018, with the Registrar of Non-Governmental Organizations, Ministry of Health, Community Development, Gender, Elderly and Children. Lutheran World Relief is currently registered in Tanzania as a as a non-governmental organization under I-NGO/0009694, dated 28/05/2018. It is an international nonprofit, faith-based organization (FBO) with the core vision on health, healing and well-being for all targeting the most vulnerable and marginalized people in the developing world. IMA in Tanzania has long working relationship with the Ministry of Health Community Development Gender, Elderly and Children (MOHCDGEC) to control and eliminate neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) through morbidity management and mass drug administration campaigns in the endemic regions of Mainland Tanzania, under the USAID-funded Act to End NTDs | East program. IMA and the MOHCDGEC are also jointly implementing the ‘SAFE’ (surgery, antibiotics, facial cleanliness, environment) program to eliminate blinding trachoma in Mtwara and Pwani through trachomatous trichiasis (TT) surgery under funding support from the UK Aid-Department for International Development (DFID).Lutheran World Relief (LWR) began its work in Tanzania in 1961 distributing food to a population suffering from a food crisis resulting from a combination of drought and floods. LWR continues to work in Tanzania with an emphasis on capacity strengthening of farmer organizations and long-term food security. LWR programs are implemented through farmer groups and faith-based organizations throughout the country, with a concentration in the Dodoma, Iringa, Kagera and Morogoro regions.
Lutheran World Relief (LWR) and IMA World Health (IMA) have recently joined forces to expand our ability to empower people to break the cycle of poverty and lead healthy lives. As part of this combination, we created a new parent organization in the United States, Corus International, Inc. (Corus), while preserving both LWR and IMA, as well as other subsidiaries, as fully registered entities under the new parent organization. Corus is registered as a Maryland nonstock nonprofit corporation as of September 26, 2019.
We are seeking to register Corus in Tanzania in a way that will not jeopardize our ability to continue operating under our current registrations as IMA and LWR. We are seeking a registration that will allow Corus to conduct a broad array of activities—including but not limited to agriculture, health, education, climate change, natural resource management, conservation, disaster risk reduction, emergency response and humanitarian assistance— and that will not restrict the organization’s activities from a sectoral or geographic approach. We are seeking a Corus registration that allows for all Corus entities to be authorized to operate in Tanzania under the Corus registration without its own separate registration. Corus is not yet operating in Tanzania and we do not want to change anything with our current operations at this point. Ultimately, we would like to migrate our local in-country staff and programs to the new Corus registration.
We seek support to obtain the necessary registration for Corus in a way that ensures our ability to continue operating under our existing registration until the new one is obtained.
