From Kambuzuma to Changemaker: Breaking the Cycle, One Rain Drop at a Time.

Growing up in Kambuzuma, Harare, Zimbabwe, poverty was a constant companion. My parents, despite their struggles, always believed education was the key to a brighter future. They tirelessly supported my studies, even when putting food on the table felt like an impossible feat.

The journey wasn’t easy. I’ve faced challenges then, and I am still learning. But that’s exactly what fuels my passion.

That’s why, alongside my fellow board members who share the same unwavering vision, I founded FundacjaIchanaya.org – our motto: “No matter how dry your season is, One day it will rain.” We focus on empowering the children of Kambuzuma through education. We believe, just like my parents did, that education is the rain that will nourish a brighter future for our community.
Our board is a collective force for change. We each bring unique experiences and expertise, united by our commitment to Kambuzuma’s children. Together, we’re developing a comprehensive approach that goes beyond just numbers.

We proudly assist 22 children, but our reach doesn’t stop there. We are actively seeking partnerships and resources to expand our impact. Our goal is to ensure every child in Kambuzuma has the opportunity to thrive.

This is more than just a cause; it’s personal.

Join us in making a difference. Together, let’s shower the children of Kambuzuma with the resources they need to blossom. Visit the website to learn more fundacjaichanaya.org

School year in Zimbabwe

Education is the foundation upon which we build the future of our children. In Zimbabwe, where the school year is divided into trimesters, engagement in education becomes even more crucial. Thanks to this system, students have the opportunity for continuous learning and development throughout the year, which is invaluable for their future.

Unfortunately, the costs of education can be an insurmountable barrier for many families. The school fee for one trimester is $50 per child, which means the total annual education cost is $150. For many families in Zimbabwe, this amount can determine the possibility of their children continuing their education.

Our Foundation has taken on the mission of supporting children in Kambuzuma-Harare, Zimbabwe, by covering these essential fees.

The tuition will be paid by the Foundation directly into the school’s account. This eliminates any intermediaries, ensuring that every penny you donate goes exactly where it is most needed.

We would like to sincerely thank all our donors for supporting this noble cause. Your help allows children in Kambuzuma-Harare, Zimbabwe to continue their education, opening doors to a better future. We believe that together we can make great changes by supporting educational development and building a better tomorrow for the youngest. Thank you for your support and trust. Together we create a better world.

Our Actions

Our support encompasses a wide range of assistance, from school supplies and tuition fees to daily meals. Here’s how we operate:

The Ichanaya Foundation provides children with the necessary educational materials and pays their tuition fees, ensuring that no child is excluded from education due to financial reasons.
Meals and School Uniforms: We provide daily, nutritious meals and school uniforms so that children can focus on learning without worrying about their basic needs. We also supply shoes, which are particularly important in regions where the journey to school is long and challenging.
Mentoring: In addition to material support, we offer a mentoring program that connects children with experienced mentors. These volunteers share their knowledge and experience, inspiring and motivating children to continue their development and strive to achieve their dreams.

Join Our Mission

The Ichanaya Foundation believes in the power of community and solidarity. Each of us can contribute to change by offering our time, knowledge, or financial support. We invite everyone who wishes to join our mission to support children in Kambuzuma-Harare, Zimbabwe. Together, we can make a significant difference, providing children with a better future.

The launch of the Ichanaya Foundation is an important step towards building a better tomorrow for children in Zimbabwe. Our mission is ambitious, but we believe that with collective commitment, determination, and generosity, we can achieve our goals. We thank everyone who has already supported our mission and invite you to continue participating in our efforts. Together, we can change the world for the better, one child at a time.

Mentoring Programs: Investing in the personal and educational development of children. Your financial contribution helps us organize sessions with mentors who guide children through the learning and development process.

How Your Donation Makes a Difference

Every donation, regardless of its size, has a direct impact on children’s lives. For example, just a few USD can provide a child with full meals for a month, and $150 can cover a year’s school tuition. Your support has the power to make education accessible to every child, regardless of their financial situation.
