Nhaka Foundation

Nhaka Foundation was founded in July, 2007 by Patrick Makokoro. Patrick’s journey, the one that led him to establish his own organization began in 2002 when he spent a month working with orphaned and vulnerable children at an orphanage in Mashonaland West, a province of Zimbabwe. It was through this experience that he came to understand the plight of many orphans. The simple fact that they had no one to guide or support them; no one to provide them with moral, psychological or financial support. For Patrick the experience was an epiphany; it was like hearing someone complain about having no shoes and then meeting someone that had no feet. He realized in that moment how focused we all are on what we don’t have rather than what we do have that can be shared with others to help them reach their God-given potential.
