Impact and Future Goals
This celebration was not just an event but a reaffirmation of the foundations' shared vision: to provide education that dispels misconceptions and creates a community where everyone—regardless of their abilities—is seen and understood. By combining the reach of the Just For Me Foundation with the advocacy of the Lisa Jensen Foundation, the event provided a platform for children with disabilities to feel empowered and celebrated.

The Strategic Planning Phase
The success of the December 3rd event was rooted in extensive consultative meetings. Lisa Jensen, founder of the Lisa Jensen Foundation and former Miss World Tanzania 2012, met with various stakeholders and leadership, including the CEO of Aga Khan Health Service Tanzania, to discuss the roadmap for the foundation's mission. These sessions involved:

Mission Alignment: Presenting the foundation's vision to increase awareness, reduce stigma, and provide safe spaces for those struggling with mental health and physical challenges.

Stakeholder Engagement: Collaborative discussions with sponsors and partners to ensure a well-supported event for children with disabilities.

Tactical Briefing: Detailed planning sessions in professional settings to coordinate logistics between the two foundations.
