Vizazi International

VIZAZI INTERNATIONAL is not just an organization; it is a concept; it is a dream; it is a beacon of hope; it is a source of refreshing water, water that will never run dry; it is the way the world ought tom be’; it is what people ought to do; it is a statement of faith; it is what in the human eye will not make sense … because it is a matter of belief! If you do not believe, you can not be.

Vizazi is because we believed!

We believed that it is possible to change a life, one at a time, and that you do not have to have millions of resources to do that. All you need is a heart. And so we set out to live a life that exemplifies that, so that one day, we can say “it is possible”. Today, we can point and say, it is possible, and so a million other people can get involved, and be part of a life changing force, through the love of Jesus Christ. So that when you sit in a comfortable living room and watch TV and see hundreds of children dying of hunger and disease, you can for sure rest knowing that you are touching one of those lives out there. After all, what is the purpose of life?

VIZAZI INTERNATIONAL is not a group of perfect people spreading their perfection around the world. It is a coming together of willing hearts, people who are ready to step out and put their lives at stake for another life; people who know for sure that they would be more happier by touching others all over the world; people who are ready to transcend barriers of faith, social class, culture, self-righteousness; race and age, to make a difference in the world.

Because we believed, we became…catalyst for change in a world that needs change so badly. Every child that Vizazi touches has to rise and be somebody in life. We are giving value to the Dollar, or to the Euro for that matter. That we put the hard earned money where it works. We invest in making sure the child has the basic needs; food cloth and shelter. Those are fundamentals of life. Without them, their lives are on a downward spiral. We then go into education. Investing in a child’s education is one of the best things you can do. Education has the greatest multiplicative powers in terms of the ultimate good you are going to do for the hours and dollars expended. And so we follow up and make sure that every coin that is spent is meaningful…it is giving tangible results. We dot go into mass production ideologies…trying to give very little to as many children, as it has happened in many parts of Africa.

Because we believed, we have shared our passions and established collaborations with churches, schools, NGOs and governments. Entrenched in our belief system is that we can never walk alone, and so we share our expertise and passions to others. And we drink from their expertise, experience and passions too.

Our primary motivation is that we love what we do. Nothing make us happy like seeing the face of an African Child or Youth whose hope in life has been re-kindled. We believe we found a purpose for living…being a beacon of hope for these children and youth across the globe. We do not want to count the costs. We have been given so much; it is our time to give. We have an education, a healthy life, parents, friends, shelter and friends. The best we could do is share what we have with the poor little orphans in Africa as a whole.

If you are privileged to have what I have, or more, then you are one of the most blessed people on earth. If you can do something that makes a difference, you have a moral obligation. But it's not a burden, it's a joy. That is why Vizazi International does what it does.

It's an incredible privilege, and of course we'll make mistakes, so it's often very humbling as well. Ultimately, solving these problems comes down to all of us. Those of us in the rich world have the chance to improve the lives of billions of people around the world. I can't think of anything that's worth more of our time and effort. Will you join us?
