What partners say

“From 2020 to 2025, we worked closely together on the development and implementation of the "Nook" self-learning centers. We came to know Matibi as a reliable, goal-driven, and highly effective partner. Their use of funds was always purposeful and transparent, with a clear and consistent focus on local impact and long-term sustainability. What we appreciated just as much was their trustworthiness and openness to dialogue. Matibi welcomed feedback, remained flexible in process, and actively shaped the collaboration in a spirit of mutual respect and shared purpose. We strongly recommend Matibi as a thoughtful, committed, and action-oriented organization.”

No Shoes Too Big

“We value the open, transparent, and trustworthy collaboration with Friends for Matibi. Their projects are impact-oriented, sustainable, and regularly reviewed. All financial agreements are clearly documented, and reporting has always been reliable and timely. Despite challenging conditions in Zimbabwe, the association has achieved impressive progress over 20 years by empowering local staff, providing training, and closely monitoring implementation on the ground.”
