As the new year begins, there’s no better way to set the tone than by coming together to make a positive impact. At MozParks, our commitment to building a thriving community extends beyond industry and innovation. It is rooted in the belief that meaningful support can transform lives. Recently, we had the privilege of contributing to the important work being done at Orfanato Dom Orione, an organization in Maputo dedicated to caring for those with special needs.
A Place of Hope and Care
Orfanato Dom Orione provides specialized care to 40 residents, aged 7 to 47, with various psychomotor disorders, who are supported by a dedicated team of 34 staff members. The orphanage also extends its support beyond its walls, providing basic food baskets to 50 families in the local community with children facing similar challenges.
During our visit, we were welcomed with open arms and smiles that spoke volumes about the joy within the orphanage. Interacting with the children reminded us of the importance of creating a safe and nurturing environment for everyone, regardless of their circumstances.
Beyond Financial Support
The orphanage’s facilities include a dental care room and a physiotherapy center, which not only provide essential services but also contribute to its sustainability. Such initiatives reflect the resilience and resourcefulness of the team at Orfanato Dom Orione, led by Fathers Dinis and Paulino.
Father Paulino expressed his gratitude, noting that the partnership with MozParks and our team’s collective effort is a cherished annual tradition. It is moments like these that reaffirm our belief in the power of coming together to make a difference.
A Word of Appreciation
This contribution would not have been possible without the dedication of our MozParks team and the broader community. To everyone who participated in this initiative, we extend our heartfelt thanks. Your kindness and generosity are at the heart of what makes MozParks not just a workplace but a community-driven organization.
