HISTORY: Mamoyo Foundation - Women & Youth Initiative: Wellness Spas & Retreats +
www.mamoyo.org www.mamoyo.org
Restaurants was formed in 2017 after employment opportunities arose at Mamoyo Retreats
& Wellness Spa. After thinking about how we could go beyond simply employing a few
therapists but train the previously disadvantaged to be therapists & business people. We
were already in the process of developing 2 self sufficient micro communities & decided to
expand on the concept. Copy, paste & improve worldwide.
Wellness therapy classes: helps build strong skills, vocational abilities & provides a
positive community. 25-30 a year attend classes to administer therapies. Learn on the job.
Tourism & Hospitality classes: to low-income & poor residents in selected communities.
As the training is hands on, in an existing establishment. The student will learn with real
customers, real tourists in a real business.
