At MBMF Foundation, we believe in the power of giving and the joy of transforming lives. In partnership with "We Are Blessed to Bless" ministry, we are honored to support the children of Burundi, East Africa, ensuring they receive love, care, and essential resources.

Together with Moises and friends in Burundi, we minister to children by providing food, haircuts, and Christmas gifts, ensuring that every child feels valued and cherished. Through these acts of kindness, we help meet their basic needs and bring smiles to their faces during the holiday season.

This mission is more than just giving—it’s about spreading God’s love and sharing hope with those who need it most. Every meal served, every gift given, and every moment of care is a reminder that we are truly blessed to bless others.

Thank You, Jesus, for allowing us to be a part of this beautiful mission!

MBMF’s Commitment to G20 South Africa 2025: Addressing Critical Global Issues 🌍

As the March 2025 G20 South Africa Summit approaches, MBMF (MBMF Foundation) continues to play a pivotal role in global economic and social development by engaging in the C20 South Africa Working Groups. The foundation, which is focused on making a positive impact in areas such as financial inclusion, sustainable development, and humanitarian aid, has officially registered its participation in the C20 South Africa Working Group. While progress has been slightly slower than that of other countries, MBMF remains committed and is eagerly awaiting upcoming meetings scheduled for April 2025.

South Africa’s G20 Presidency has highlighted several priority areas for global development, and MBMF is proud to contribute to the discussions and initiatives that will shape the future of our world.

Priority Areas for South Africa’s G20 Presidency

South Africa’s G20 Presidency has made it clear that addressing the food crisis remains one of its highest priorities. As one of the most urgent challenges facing many regions, particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa, the focus on Food Security (WG2) is a critical element of MBMF’s involvement. In addition to food security, sustainable cities and climate resilience are key issues that MBMF is committed to addressing through its chosen working groups.

MBMF’s Engagement in Working Groups

WG2: Food Security

The food crisis has escalated globally, with millions facing hunger due to climate change, conflict, and economic instability. WG2, which focuses on Food Security, is a vital area where MBMF seeks to contribute. By advocating for sustainable agricultural practices, food distribution networks, and resilient food systems, MBMF aims to help mitigate the growing food insecurity challenges facing the Global South.

WG5: Sustainable & Resilient Cities & Communities

As urban populations continue to grow, ensuring that cities and communities are sustainable and resilient to challenges such as climate change and economic shocks is essential. MBMF is actively engaged in WG5, which seeks to create solutions for eco-friendly urbanization and community resilience. With a focus on green infrastructure, affordable housing, and climate adaptation, MBMF strives to provide long-term solutions to enhance the quality of life in cities and communities across developing economies.

WG3: Anti-Racism, Environmental, Climate & Energy Justice

MBMF is committed to advocating for environmental justice and climate action, particularly in regions that are most vulnerable to the effects of climate change. The WG3 working group focuses on anti-racism, climate justice, and the transition to clean energy. With climate change disproportionately affecting marginalized communities, MBMF’s involvement in WG3 seeks to promote equitable and inclusive policies for climate mitigation and energy transition.

MBMF’s Vision for a Better Future

MBMF’s active participation in these key working groups aligns with the foundation’s overarching vision of building a more inclusive, sustainable, and just world. With its focus on global financial inclusion, climate resilience, sustainable cities, and humanitarian action, MBMF is committed to bringing innovative solutions and collaborative efforts to the forefront of G20 South Africa 2025.

Conclusion: Looking Ahead to G20 South Africa 2025

As MBMF continues its engagement in the C20 South Africa meetings, the foundation is excited to contribute to discussions that will ultimately help shape a more equitable and sustainable future for Africa and the world. Food security, climate justice, and sustainable development are urgent priorities, and MBMF’s involvement in WG2, WG3, and WG5 provides a platform for driving forward these critical agendas.

We look forward to sharing more insights and updates as we approach April 2025 and the upcoming working group meetings, where MBMF will continue to collaborate with global leaders to create solutions that have a lasting impact on economic stability, social equity, and environmental sustainability.
