Needs assessment is a systematic process for determining and addressing needs, or "gaps" between current conditions and desired conditions or "wants". The discrepancy between the current condition and wanted condition must be measured to appropriately identify the need. This paper has come out with the community needs assessment (CNA) report concerning society living in Kiluvya Sub-ward (Gogoni, Madukani and Kwakomba), from Kinondoni district. The overall objective is to provide enough information about the economic, political and social factors that are negatively hindering the development of the residents of Kiluvya villages. In realizing this objective, the research used questionnaires to collect key data from different sections within Kiluvya. Then Data analysis was done using SPSS version 17.0. Study findings indicated that Kiluvya life standards are very low due to various social and economic problem hence need special treatment and improvement through training. The study recommends Kiluvya society should be assisted to tackle the problem with an inadequate entrepreneurship skill by conducting training sessions with group leaders and their members. Through training the society groups will perform better in their small business that they are performing and thereafter ineffective use of their resources. This can be achieved through increased good financial support, improved management skills and provide good training support on entrepreneurship. Sustainability of the project is important and the researcher will make sure that the project continues with better performance.
