#TheSonyDifference · 1 June 2016

In 2012, Larchfield Charity Organisation was established by James Berry working together with a philanthropic Tanzanian group as a Tanzanian charitable entity. Larchfield’s objective is to serve the desperate plight of the increasing numbers of Tanzanian orphans and children who have been abandoned by their parents and other family members through disease, or other incapacity to maintain the family unit. At present, there are only limited facilities in place in Tanzania to care for and educate these children in a suitable environment. A few children – if they are fortunate enough to be taken in by a foster family – only enjoy a second class status which involves being subordinate to and working for their host family. Other children, who are unable to find a foster family, are effectively abandoned, have to fend for themselves, and too often become victims of abuse. In Mkuranga district, one hour south of Dar-es-Salaam, there are numerous children in this position. The community and local government presently lack the resources to remedy the situation. To serve the needs of this district, it was decided to register a children’s home and school called ‘Larchfield’, to serve as a happy, safe and secure environment for Tanzanian children in need. The objective is to build and operate a purpose-built children’s home and school for children aged 3-16 years.

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

#TheSonyDifference is a CSR initiative from Sony Professional Solutions MEA to support the Larchfield Charity in Tanzania; to build and operate a purpose-built children's home for 50 children at first and eventually accommodate up to 300. 

We are committed to this worthy cause to make a true difference to the plight of thousands of Tanzanian children who have been deprived of a future. Their misfortune could have been caused due to being completely abandoned by their parents either due to disease and death, divorce or even simply being incapable of maintaining the gift of a family life.

To really make a difference, it’s just not enough to build great products and services. We must go beyond that and future-proof the generations to come. 

This is a cause very close to our heart. It is our aim to collect a total contribution of AED 500,000/- towards the Larchfield Charity. With your support we can truly make an impact for the next generation!

Thank you!
