The following is information from Compassion International specific to Tanzania, the country of sponsored child -- Magazi.
"Although Tanzania is one of the most politically stable countries in Africa, it remains desperately poor. The country hosts the largest refugee population in Africa because of conflicts in neighboring Rwanda, Burundi and Democratic Republic of Congo. Refugee camps, which house thousands of children in Tanzania, have little access to clean water, sanitary conditions or education.
Nearly 90% of Tanzanians struggle to survive on less than $1.25 a day. The country has few exports, and agriculture is the primary source of income. Many regions, however, are plagued by drought."
