OUR VISION

To serve our members and the wider community by developing communities through sustainable interventions and capacity building.

Founded in 2019 by Fortune Nkomo and a board of six trustees, the Trust brings together local members, government and non-governmental partners to tackle poverty at its roots — through knowledge, enterprise and community ownership.

WHAT WE DO

Six areas of action, one goal: communities that thrive on their own terms.

Ending extreme poverty

Educating and engaging communities on the causes and effects of poverty, and mobilising resources to eradicate it.

Capacity building

Training and empowering people to realise their own potential in development — free of regionalism and nepotism.

Green economy

Supporting environmentally friendly projects and green industrialisation in Zimbabwe.

Technology & innovation

Using technology to make every intervention more efficient, transparent and accountable.

Jobs & financial inclusion

Connecting communities to government and NGO development programmes, and to employment.

Child health & care

Contributing to lower infant mortality and better childcare through targeted interventions.

HOW WE WORK

Accountable by design.

Community-owned

Membership is open to every community in Zimbabwe, regardless of race, creed, sex, politics or religion.

Apolitical

The Trust takes no political side. Our work is judged only by what it delivers for communities.

Transparent

Our accounts are audited every year by a qualified accountant and reported to members at the AGM.

Built on partnership

We work with other organisations, government extension officers and donors toward shared goals.
