Help The Planet

Our mission as a social venture is to empower every Malawian to take an active role in the fight against climate change. To achieve this, we are committed to providing civic education and distributing the most affordable and appropriate tree seedlings at the right time. Additionally, we utilize technological channels such as ICT forestry to enhance our efforts to combat climate change

About Thangata Initiative

We are committed to helping in combating climate change and its effects

Welcome to Thangata Initiative - a youth-driven organization that is committed to helping rural Malawians in need.

Our organization was founded in 2022, and our name Thangata is derived from a word that means "help voluntarily." This reflects our core mission, which is to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others.

As young people, we have witnessed the devastating impact of climate change on our environment and communities. We have also learned about the urgent need to take action and contribute to the fight against climate change. Thangata Initiative is dedicated to addressing this issue and creating a positive impact that benefits both people and the planet.

Our team is made up of passionate and dedicated individuals who share a common goal: to provide help where it is needed the most. We work tirelessly to develop sustainable solutions that address the needs of rural Malawians, and we strive to make a lasting impact on their lives.

At Thangata Initiative, we believe that everyone has the power to make a difference, and we are committed to inspiring and empowering young people to take action and make positive changes in their communities. Through our various programs and initiatives, we are working towards a future where rural Malawians have access to the resources and support they need to thrive.

We invite you to join us in our mission to make a difference and create a better world for all. Thank you for visiting Thangata Initiative.
