Founder spotlight
Cloe Chihuta
"Every community already holds the answers. Our work is to stand beside people, remove the barriers in their way, and let their own capability lead."
Cloe founded the Foundation after two decades of community and social care work across Southern Africa and abroad, convinced that dignity — not charity — is the starting point of lasting change.
