The Rooted Foundation: Cornelius and Rosemary Legacy foundation was born out of a deep desire to give back to the community that shaped us. Inspired by the legacy of Cornelius and Rosemary Ndiya, whose kindness and commitment to others knew no bounds, this foundation seeks to honour their memory by uplifting the people of Hwata community in Churumanzu, the greater community and beyond. What started as a simple act of helping students achieve their education goals and the village community has grown into a mission of building sustainable impact through education, clean water, women and girl empowerment projects and dignity for all.
