MAMA GUYO FOUNDATION

Mama Guyo Foundation is a non-profit, charitable organization founded in 2016 by H.E. Alamitu Guyo Jattani – First Lady Marsabit County – to promote and enhance the voice and lives of the vulnerable population in Marsabit County through ideals of motherly care, sharing, and protection as evoked in the word ‘Mama’ which is a Swahili word for Mother. The ideals and spirit of motherhood are what the organization aspires to provide to the poor and disadvantaged children, youths and their groups, women and their groups, elderly, people with disability, and the sickly and minority people in the Marsabit community.

ORGANIZATION PROGRAMME

GADDIS GAMME PROGRAMME

For schoolgirls in Marsabit, holidays are a breeding ground for all manners of gender-based abuses. They are often exposed to early marriages, FGM (Female Genital Mutilation), early and unprotected sex, and nonconsensual sex. These abuses are compounded by the persistent gender-based vulnerabilities.

ADOPT A SCHOOL MENTORSHIP PROGRAMME

This is a school-based voluntary annual mentorship programme that the organization undertakes to improve, among others, academic excellence, life skills development, well-roundedness of students, and enhance girl-child education rights to generate responsible and productive young people in Marsabit County.

MOYALE EDUCATION FUND

The organization is also in the process of establishing a community-based Scholarship Fund that will benefit residents of Moyale Sub County of Marsabit. The project aims to generate contributions by mobilization communities toward a fundraising drive that is supported by local leaders and the political leadership of the County.
