Aims and Objectives
Learns about how we serve rural communities
Education
We provide scholarships to underprivileged children who are unable to afford school fees. The foundation also supports children in rural communities by paying their school fees, providing educational materials such as Uniforms, School Bags, Sandals, Textbooks/Notebooks and other school supplies.
Healthcare
We facilitate access to healthcare services for those in need. The foundation supports medical procedures, such as surgery, and raises awareness about health issues, such as HIV/AIDS, SGBV, Malaria amongst other diseases. We embark in health sensitization activities in rural communities.
Quality Life
We organize local talent and festival of culture events, celebrating local culture and providing opportunities for children to showcase their talents. This helps to build community spirit and to give people a sense of belonging and community spirit.
Economic Empowerment
Empowerment is essential for social change, that is why we provide empowerment programs for rural community dwellers by helping them to develop their skills, provide training and startup capital to enable them to start their own businesses.
Housing
We know that housing is a basic human right, that is why we provide housing assistance to families in need. We renovate poor living spaces of rural dwellers and provide accommodation in extreme cases through donations received.
Food Distribution
We understand that food is essential for life. We distribute food to families in need, we are also working to create a food bank system to help more families in need.
Past Projects
Since 2021, we have championed over 10 projects and impacted over 2,000 lives
School Makeover Project
Bonnicare Foundation School Makeover Project is one of our first initiatives. The project began in 2022.
This project was designed specifically for a 7-year-old primary 1 school child who was suffering from Scalp Dermatitis which resulted in flies’ infestation and sores all over her head.
Underprivileged communities often lack access to quality healthcare. This can be due to a number of factors, including poverty, lack of insurance, and distance to healthcare facilities.
