THE MISSION

TACASO is dedicated to eliminating cancer as a major health problem, and improving the lives of those living with cancer

We are a Non-governmental organization operating in Tanzania registered on 22nd August 2014. We dedicate our collective wisdom and efforts to eliminating cancer as a major health problem and improving the lives of those living with cancer. We recognize that cancer and its associated complications transcends ethnic, geographical, political, cultural and religious boundaries, and requires the active participation of the community for its control, reduction and eventual eradication, and that by virtue of their flexibility and adaptability, non-governments are in better position than government organizations to experiment and innovate for the development of effective strategies

TACASO has carried out many outreach programs and projects to educate the masses.
