Zua foundation helps families in absolute poverty, especially those displaced from their homes by violent groups, to return to rural areas. These families live in a Zua farm close to the Sasaima town, organized as a commune (like a kibbutz). This foundation needs to provide endowment for a communitarian multipurpose lounge with kitchen, dining room, meeting room and classroom.It will improve the quality of life of their families which are at present highly vulnerable. In the same way the community is intended to become self-sustaining and to obtain additional income.
