Empowering Communities in Pomona
Transforming Lives Through Compassionate Care
At Mamasafi Foundation, we believe that every individual deserves the opportunity to thrive, no matter their circumstances. As a dedicated nonprofit organization based in Pomona, California, our mission is to uplift the most vulnerable members of our community, unhoused women and children by providing essential resources and compassionate support.
Our Core Programs
Food Program
At the heart of Mamasafi Foundation’s mission is our Food Distribution Program, which addresses food insecurity in Pomona. We recognize that reliable access to nutritious food is a fundamental human right, and our program is designed to meet this need with care and dignity.
​
Prepared Food Packs:
We distribute balanced, nutritious food packs tailored to the dietary needs of different age groups and health conditions. These packs include grains, proteins, fruits, and vegetables, ensuring recipients have the essentials for a healthy life.
Regular Distribution Events: We host multiple food distribution events each month at accessible locations across Pomona, where everyone is welcomed with respect.
Mobile Outreach: Our mobile service delivers food packs directly to those who are homebound or homeless, ensuring no one is left behind.
Clothing Assistance Program
​
We understand that clean, well-fitted clothing is essential for dignity and confidence. Our Clothing Assistance Program provides women and children affected by poverty with the clothing they need to face daily challenges.​
Seasonal Clothing Drives:
We collect and distribute new and gently used clothing during our seasonal drives, focusing on specific needs such as winter coats or summer attire.
Customized Clothing Packages:
Each clothing package is tailored to the individual’s needs, including everyday wear, school uniforms, professional attire, and baby clothes.
Special Initiatives for Children:
Ensuring that children have appropriate clothing for school is a priority, so we provide shoes, backpacks, and other essentials to foster confidence and academic success.
Holiday Gift Program
The holiday season should be a time of joy for every family. Through our Holiday Gift Program, we bring warmth and happiness to children and families during this special time of year.
​
Gift Drives:
We collect toys, books, and other gifts for children from low-income families. These are then wrapped and distributed at festive holiday events.
​
Family-Centered Events:
Our holiday events include meals, games, and activities that create lasting memories and foster community spirit.
School Supply Assistance Program
Education is key to breaking the cycle of poverty. Our School Supply Assistance Program ensures that children in Pomona have the tools they need to succeed in school.​
​
Back-to-School Drives:
We organize annual drives to provide students with notebooks, pencils, backpacks, and other essentials for the school year.
​
Year-Round Support:
We offer ongoing support for families struggling to afford school supplies, including special projects, technology, and school fees.
​
Partnering with Schools:
Our partnerships with local schools allow us to identify and support students in need, ensuring our resources reach those who benefit most.
