Hear From Those We've Impacted
The MOOM Foundation came into my life at a time I was about to drop out of school. With their scholarship and mentoring program, I’m now in my final year — and thriving! Their support goes beyond finances — it’s truly life-changing
We now have a borehole in our village, thanks to the foundation’s community project. For the first time in years, we have clean water. This is more than help — it’s hope restored.”
As a small business owner, the grant I received from MOOM Foundation helped me expand my inventory and hire two assistants. They believed in me when no one else did.
