About

Dr Grace Sangoni Foundation

The Dr Grace Sangoni Foundation is the fundraising arm of the Dr Grace Sangoni Memorial Centre mandated to provide financial support to enhance our current programmes. The Foundation is the preserver and restorer of the legacy of Dr Sangoni, which is compassion for our fellow human beings. Our guiding principle is informed by Dr Sangoni’s core value which is most accurately encapsulated in the Charter for Compassion:

The principle of compassion lies at the heart of all religious, ethical and spiritual traditions, calling us always to treat all others as we wish to be treated ourselves.  Compassion impels us to work tirelessly to alleviate the suffering of our fellow creatures, to dethrone ourselves from the centre of our world and put another there, and to honour the inviolable sanctity of every single human being treating everybody, without exception, with absolute justice, equity and respect.

Apart from raising funding for the Memorial Centre, we fund the following causes which were very close to our eponym’s heart:

Medical Assistance

We assist people in remote areas to access medication and health care.

Family support

We assist needy families with food, shelter or clothing.

Educational Skills and Empowerment

We assist underprivileged youth to further their studies in the medical field. This is not limited to those who aspire to be doctors, but extends through the full spectrum of medical professions.

Events

We organise events that are expected to have an impact on rural youth. We are currently collecting school shoes, school bags, stationery, grey socks, white school shirts and grey pants which
