Matlabas Improvement Movement

Rise by lifting others.

The betterment of our community holds paramount social significance in our mission. Our region, being remote and characterized by dilapidated roads, faces unique challenges. Therefore, we are dedicated to bridging these gaps by bringing information, training sessions, and workshops to our widely dispersed and often isolated farm communities.

​

Our focus areas encompass crucial skills such as first aid and self-defense, empowering our residents with the knowledge and tools to respond effectively to emergencies and protect themselves. Additionally, we extend our support to underprivileged families with food parcels and basic needs, ensuring they receive the assistance they need.

​

Our dedicated team is geared to assess disasters like floods, fires, drought, and disease, and we are capable of then assisting our community to effectively and efficiently respond to both their immediate and longer-term needs.

 

Our operations rely heavily on the generosity of our community members and other benevolent donors who provide both food donations and financial support. Through your contributions, we can continue our vital work, uplifting our community and making a meaningful difference in the lives of those who need it most. Together, we strive to create a brighter and more resilient future for all.

​

Everything we do, we do with the help of our own community members, but we also rely on donations from good Samaritans from outside the Matlabas area.
