Lewis Makanda

Co – Founder & Research and Development

I am part of Fundisa because of what my life experience has been. Both my parents passed on at a tender age and getting education was a struggle for me, I often had to go to school without all the requirements but I had to make it work. So I always told myself that when I was older and if I could change even one life so that they don’t face the challenges I faced, I would do that. Fundisa does that for me. I believe children are at the centre of most things and we have to treat them like that, show them all love and make sure they get one of their basic fundamental rights which is education as it will go a long way to secure and give them better opportunities. My motivation comes from a very personal place and I see myself in these kids and not everyone of them can be fortunate enough to face what I faced and be able to survive it. I am motivated to help change their life story through Fundisa. But most of all ‘’ With God, nothing is Impossible.
