Mamachee Humanitarian Projects

Mamachee’s primary goal is to encourage youth to develop their capacities through art and dance. However, Mamachee also endeavors to raise the awareness of children’s education as the symbol of humanity’s future. Thus the aim is to give opportunities to homeless or disadvantaged  children to express themselves through art and dance in order to develop the awareness of work and the importance of developing skills to complete a project.

 

We strive to expose them to an artistic universe, to distract them from their daily lives and raise them to different horizons such as: the importance of work, respect, love, happiness, joy and friendship.

 

The idea is also to give the youth the opportunity to express themselves through dance by presenting an artistic work of which they themselves are members; and give them the chance to prove that the energy of youth is the bearer of hope for humanity’s future and that it is possible to unify the world through dance.

 

Mamachee also helps the children and youth of Niger (West Africa) and various countries in different field such as:

 

 

Education

 

Mamachee is also trying to help the African youth and children to learn skills, gain knowledge and techniques that will ensure them a brighter future. Our fundraisers helps to send various children to school and obtain degrees and an education. Mamachee is not only focusing on academic values, but also on moral values like love, patience, generosity, unity, cooperation, and honesty. We strongly believe in this quotation: “ Regard man as a mine rich in gems of inestimable value. Education can, alone, cause it to reveal its treasures, and enable mankind to benefit therefrom.” (Baha'u'llah, founder of Baha'i Faith). This is why, it is important for us to develop their humane capacities as well as the academic ones. The goal is to teach them knowledge that they will use themselves later in the future to develop their social and professional lives, and give the best of their capacities for a greater future. It is also our goal to develop their desire to serve their communities through various projects such as:

  • Tutoring in French and in academic disciplines for kids with little education.

  • Various educational training in moral and spiritual values through arts and exercises.

  • Training in arts: dance, theatre, drawing and singing with professionals

  • Projects for the service of the community: environmental projects, help in hospitals and free clinics...

  • Financial aid to send children to school and get an education
