Lizzie and co-founder, Donna, started The Moyo Foundation with a mind to build a grassroots, non-profit organization that works locally and tailors projects and solutions to the community and area that it works in. After spending several years at Mugie (on and off) Lizzie is more in love with this precious part of Kenya than ever, and loves being part of an organization that truly makes a difference.

With a background doing charitable work in many parts of the world (Iceland, Zimbabwe, Ghana, and throughout England - to name just a few) bringing Rory onto the Moyo team was an obvious choice. Rory has a head for logistics and a heart for humanitarian aide. We are incredibly lucky to have him with us at Mugie, and look forward to his help as we grow and expand our programs.
