Started in 2009, our vision is to build an educated and developed Maasai community whose cultural practices contribute positively towards gender and social equity and respect for human rights.
Maccop is a non-profit making community based organization run by the local Maasai Team based in Olasiti, which is a remote rural village about 22km from the nearest town (Ngong).
We connect people world-wide with opportunities to serve, build the capacity of organizations to effectively involve volunteers, promote volunteerism, and to provide leadership in strategic initiatives related to volunteerism.
About usEncourage education of Maasai boys and girls, and help make them responsible members of the community. Help the Maasai women to gain confidence that they are the prime movers of their own destiny, and they are the major forces in dealing with the issues that confront them.
