UK Charity for Zimbabwe's Children
Every child deserves a chance to learn.
Mtima Heart Foundation (MHF) helps children in Zimbabwe stay in school, paying education costs and providing learning essentials through school partnerships.
£37 covers a child's school fees for one term. Every donation, whatever the amount, helps keep children learning.
Our Mission
Removing the barriers between a child and their classroom.
Already supporting two Grade 6 learners through our partnership with Chaedza Primary School in Chinhoyi.
Zimbabwe remains one of Southern Africa's most economically challenged countries, and many families struggle to afford school fees, examination fees and essential learning materials. Poverty continues to prevent hundreds of thousands of children from accessing or completing their education, with around half of adolescents aged 13–19 currently out of school.
Through direct partnerships with schools — beginning with Chaedza Primary School in Chinhoyi — we pay school fees and examination fees, and provide essential learning supplies directly to schools and suppliers, ensuring transparency and helping orphans and underprivileged children stay in the classroom and build brighter futures.
