Get to Know Our Foundation

The Philemon Omari Mbaga Foundation was established to honour the late Philemon Omari Mbaga by his Wife, Sons and Daughters. Our Mission is to improve the quality of life of older people by supporting them to live with dignity, remain active, healthy, and independent in their communities.

We work to re-instil in the elderly the confidence that age and productivity are not mutually exclusive — utilizing their experience and maturity in activities that serve the needs of the community.

Through our programs in employment, training, community support, and advocacy, we strive to rid the minds of older people of the fear that age means decline and that retirement means loneliness and loss of prestige.
