Help build a school for the children of Namwendwa.

Donation protected


Norah Zoummar, professionally known as Neshlyn, is an esteemed Ugandan singer with a profound commitment to philanthropy. In an effort to address the educational disparities within her home village of Namwendwa in the Kamuli district, Norah and her close-knit circle of family and friends established the Neshlyn Children's Foundation. This non-profit organization is dedicated to improving the lives of underprivileged children, with a particular focus on mitigating the cycle of poverty and early motherhood that disproportionately affects young girls in the region.

During a visit to her ancestral home, Norah was confronted with the stark realities faced by many children in Namwendwa. The challenges of accessing education due to financial constraints moved her deeply, prompting her resolute mission to create change. The gravity of the situation, which sees countless children, especially girls, deprived of their right to education, has been a poignant reminder of the work that lies ahead.

Alongside her singing career, Norah is an entrepreneur who, together with her husband, operates a small diner. Her role as a waitress there is more than a job; it's a conduit for her philanthropic endeavors. Norah generously allocates every tip she earns to the Neshlyn Children's Foundation, and the diner contributes further by donating 20% of the proceeds from every gift card sold.

However, Norah recognizes that the road to transforming the educational landscape in Namwendwa is one that requires collective effort. The foundation's ultimate goal is to construct a school that will serve as a beacon of hope and opportunity, ensuring that every child in the village has access to quality education.

Norah Zoummar extends a heartfelt invitation to join her in this noble cause. Donations to the Neshlyn Children's Foundation are not merely charitable contributions; they are investments in the future of Namwendwa's children. Through your support, we can collectively ensure that these deserving children are no longer forgotten and are given the future they rightfully deserve..
