OUR STORY

Our story began in Kilifi, Kenya, when Janna set out to develop SafariSeat in 2016. He joined forces with Cara, Bertie and James and together they founded, crowdfunded and launched the SafariSeat venture. With the help of an ever expanding team, Janna’s original dream has evolved and grown into TAI, an international organisation whose impact has reached hundreds of people in Africa.

Today, under the leadership of Isabella & Ken, TAI is growing. TAI Assistive Devices and Livelihood & Inclusion Programs are changing the life of persons with disabilities in Africa.

Our journey has been made possible by the generosity of people from all over the world, from our original Kickstarter backers who saw our potential so early on, to philanthropists who took pride in enabling our expansion.

Our gratitude is deep, and is shared by all those who have been impacted by our work. We are proud of what we have achieved together, and we are proud to have persevered against the odds.

If you would like to become a part of our story, we welcome your support. Without people like you, this idea would still be a dream, a sketch on a piece of paper. Because of you, it has become so much more.
