Strengthening health, nutrition and resilience in Tanzania

Family Smile Organization (FASMO) is a professional and volunteer-driven NGO based in Morogoro, Tanzania, working to improve health, nutrition and overall well-being through sustainable, preventive and system-strengthening interventions.

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.

Our Strategic Approach

FASMO applies upstream prevention approaches by addressing the determinants of health — including food systems, environmental sustainability, capacity gaps, policy engagement and evidence generation — while also implementing practical, evidence-based interventions at community level.

Our Areas of Focus

We implement preventive and responsive interventions targeting maternal, infant, young child and adolescent health and nutrition. Our work strengthens health systems, promotes early prevention of challenges such as malnutrition and supports positive behaviour change.

We promote climate-smart and sustainable agricultural practices to enhance food security, dietary diversity and environmental resilience for rural communities.

Capacity Building

We strengthen the technical and institutional capacity of frontline workers including youth, community health workers, local leaders and partner organizations through practical training, mentorship and continuous learning.

Research and Evidence

We generate and use evidence to inform policies and strategies, strengthen programme implementation and support data-driven decision-making that improves outcomes for communities.

Humanitarian Support

We provide targeted humanitarian and social support interventions for vulnerable populations during emergencies and periods of crisis.
