Who We Are? The Mafaz Development Foundation is a non-profit organization based in Morocco, founded in 2019 by engineers from various specialties and with diverse volunteer experiences, all sharing the same vision. Our Vision: Empowering Young Minds for Lifelong Impact We are a collective of volunteer engineers from diverse technical backgrounds, united by a shared belief: The most powerful way to help someone is to support their ability to grow, think, and build for themselves. Our non-profit initiative is rooted in human development, with a strong focus on education - because we know that real, long-term change starts with young people and their mindset. We work hand-in-hand with under-resourced schools to enhance the quality of education, especially for students aged 12 to 16 - a critical stage when identity, motivation, and future orientation are taking shape. Our Core Approach: Soft Skills ProgramsWe design and deliver practical, age-appropriate training to build key life competencies: emotional intelligence, problem-solving, communication, adaptability, and teamwork. Digital Transformation for SchoolsWe help schools integrate technology in meaningful ways - from digital literacy to tools that engage students and support teachers. Mindset & MentorshipThrough workshops and mentoring, we support students in building confidence, self-awareness, and a proactive attitude toward their future. We don't aim to substitute traditional education - we complement and uplift it by equipping both students and educators with the tools to thrive. Why Now? As digital and social realities evolve rapidly, many students are left without the emotional or practical preparation to navigate what's ahead. We step in at the right time - not just to transfer knowledge, but to ignite personal transformation. Our Mission: To help shape an educated and cultured citizen, instilled with reformative values and thus a productive member of society. To achieve this goal, the Mafaz Development Foundation has made public education its top priority by focusing its efforts on improving the quality of teaching and modernizing educational spaces for Moroccan students. Our Principles: Independence:To preserve its moral and financial independence, Mafaz operates according to its own principles while maintaining strict political impartiality. Professionalism:Mafaz bases the design, implementation, management, and evaluation of its programs on professional standards and the capitalization of its experience. Transparency:Mafaz is committed to transparency with its beneficiaries, partners, and donors regarding the management of donations and provides all necessary guarantees. How and where we operate ? The Mafaz Development Foundation operates throughout Morocco, with a particular focus on rural and underserved areas where educational and social needs are most pressing. Our projects are implemented directly on the ground by multidisciplinary teams of volunteer engineers and professionals, ensuring a practical and community-centered approach. We work closely with local stakeholders-schools, associations, and public institutions-to co-design and deliver impactful, sustainable solutions. Whether through modernizing school infrastructure, promoting ecological awareness, or fostering digital literacy, our operations are guided by our core values of independence, professionalism, and transparency.
