Our story began with a shared voice — and grew into shared action.

Founded in 2023, One Another CBO started as a radio program on Yetu Community Radio in Dzaleka Refugee Camp, Malawi, then expanded to serve individuals and communities beyond the camp with practical acts of love, support, and empowerment.

Preamble

From conversation to compassion in action

One Another CBO was formed to answer real needs with real care. Through radio, community relationships, and grassroots action, the organization became a trusted channel for service, encouragement, and hope. Today, it continues to stand with vulnerable people through social, economic, and educational support.

Our heart is simple: to love one another in visible ways. That means strengthening families, mentoring youth, providing emergency support, and creating spaces where people feel seen, safe, and connected.
