Noms Drive for the Underprivileged

Introduction

Welcome to NOMS DRIVE FOR THE UNDERPRIVILEGED, a Non-Profit Organization committed to uplifting the lives of those less fortunate. Established in 2021 and officially registered as an NPC on 10th March and an NPO on 25th March 2023, our mission is to create a positive impact by enhancing the quality of life and bolstering self-esteem within underprivileged communities.

Ignited by the dedicated heart of Ms. Ne Moela, the founder of NOMS DRIVE. Ms. Moela embarked on a journey to provide essential necessities such as hygiene items and food parcels to make their lives a little bit better.

The genesis of this organization can be traced back to June 2021 when Ms. Moela celebrated her 40th birthday by urging family and friends to join her in the noble cause of giving away sanitary towels, sanitizers, uniforms, and hygiene products to at least 10 underprivileged children.

Little did she know that this act of kindness would reveal a lifelong commitment, prompting her to invite everyone capable of making a difference to contribute to this cause.

The organization is governed by a diverse and passionate board of members hailing from various backgrounds. Each member is committed to making a positive contribution to the organization for the greater benefit of these communities.
