The MAMF seeks to fulfil the vision of its founder.
T he Africa Committee of the Manuel António da Mota
Foundation (MAMF), represented in this initiative by Teresa
Mota Neves and Alexandra Romão Mota, visited the Malawi market as part of the “Mota-Engil African Initiatives” project, whose programme is essentially supported by two pillars of action: support for better health and education conditions.
Among the work programme developed and coordinated with the structure
of Mota-Engil Malawi, in which the market’s CEO, António Pimenta da Silva, was present, several institutions such as hospitals and schools were visited, and a donation of books, textbooks and sports equipment was carried out at the school in the Nkhotakota region.
With the visit of the promoters of the “African Initiatives” project, the goal of
the Africa Committee was to include the visited school in the “school sponsorship” programme, alongside what is already happening in other schools in Angola and Mozambique, reinforcing this structure’s support in the country and creating a vehicle for a permanent relationship with this academic institution.
For Mota-Engil Malawi and MAMF, this initiative developed by Teresa Mota Neves and Alexandra Romão Mota,
in a market in which the Group has
been present since 1990, with great involvement with the local communities, is another reason for the Group to be extremely proud for achieving its goals, and one which will be continued.
In this way, the MAMF seeks to fulfil the vision of its founder in supporting the social development of the local communities where Mota-Engil operates.
