Supporting the Local Community

Our Azura Rainbow Fund is the first registered charity of its kind in Mozambique. It supports a variety of social and environmental projects large and small, from building schools, to environmental protection initiatives. We have a dedicated environmentalist and community officer at Azura, and we work alongside the National Park and local communities wherever we can to protect and enhance the environments on which they depend.

Rainbow Fund Initiatives

The Rainbow Fund supports special event days such as Christmas day, Children’s day, Environment day and Women’s Day by holding events that are designed to educate and uplift children and their families.

Benguerra School

At Azura Benguerra the funds collected from the Rainbow Fund initiative built our first school which now has some 400 children in education compared to 40 when we started, as well as teachers' housing blocks. We also sponsor a local football team.

Benguerra Community Clinic

In 2018, the Azura Rainbow Fund provided a total of US $65 000 for the building of the first Community Clinic and Nurses’ Residence on Benguerra Island. This much-needed health clinic and its registered nurses provide essential services to local residents who previously had little or no access to basic healthcare or medication.

We are proud members of Pack for a Purpose, an initiative that allows travelers like you to make a lasting impact in the community at your travel destination. If you save just a few kilos of space in your suitcase and take supplies for area schools or medical clinics in need, you'll make a priceless impact in the lives of our local children and families. Please click this link to see what supplies are needed for our project/projects. We will add $10 a night to your stay towards our Rainbow Fund.
