Makeni & Co Foundation is a nonprofit charity dedicated to creating lasting change for immigrant and refugee African communities in Australia and across Africa.
After laying the foundation through community engagement we are now moving into a new phase: empowering a village in Ghana through food security and sustainable livelihoods. Our first major project is building a chicken coop to house 1,000 chickens which will provide families with both a source of food and a steady income from selling eggs. This project creates self-reliance, reduces dependency and uplifts the entire community.
We are aiming to raise AUD 11,000 to make this vision a reality. Every donation, no matter the size, brings us closer to feeding families, creating jobs, and building a stronger, sustainable future. At Makeni & Co Foundation, we believe that together we make a village, and together we are stronger.
