MAGOMA FOUNDATION is a non-profit organisation in a mission to achieve the following:
• To alleviate the number of children bunking school, using tissues among other things as an alternative to pads as result of not having sanitary pads during their menstrual cycle.
• To alleviate the number of pupils attending school without proper school uniform due to affordability.
• To alleviate number of impoverished families that goes to bed hungry.
• To enable senior citizens to move around comfortably with the assistance of wheelchairs and walking crutches as opposed to being stuck in one place or moving around in a state of discomfort or having to rely on other persons to do things for them.
• To start building houses from scratch for destitute families as well finishing those that some of these families are unable to complete due to lack of finance.
• To make sure that every deceased person is given a dignified funeral regardless of their financial status in their community, by providing tents, caskets, chairs and tombstones to the family of the deceased.
• To motivate pupils, youth to make informed decisions about their future and career paths they intend to take. The statistics of youth engaging themselves in alcohol and drug abuse is worrisome and most of these youths tend to drop out of school or end up in prison, worst case scenario dead as results of substance abuse. This organisation sees the youth as an integral part of this country’s future and therefore should be guided to the right path.
• To alleviate the number of victims that die in silence by placing them in various empowerment programs that will help them deal with their ordeal in an environment perfectly suited for that, victims will be placed in various victims empowerment programs depending on their circumstances, the organisation will offer these programs to the victims of rape, domestic violence and abuse.
