About Family Smile Organization (FASMO)
Family Smile Organization (FASMO) is a professional and volunteer-driven non-governmental organization based in Morogoro, Tanzania. We were officially registered in September 2019 under the Non-Governmental Organization Act 2002 of the United Republic of Tanzania.
We work across the prevention continuum — from upstream systemic interventions to community-level action — to improve health, nutrition and overall well-being for children, adolescents, families and communities.
Our Mission
To improve health, nutrition and overall well-being through sustainable, preventive and system-strengthening interventions that address root causes.
Our Vision
A healthy, resilient and empowered society where children and families thrive in supportive environments.
