Mandate
Cana Foundation mandate
The foundation exists to provide structured, long-term support to families facing hardship, operating through defined programmes and accountable partnerships.
Charter statements
The mandate is expressed through concise statements that guide every programme and decision.
The foundation exists to stabilise families experiencing hardship by delivering targeted assistance that is documented, time-bound, and reviewed.
Programmes are designed to prevent the loss of schooling, health access, or housing when a household faces a shock. Each programme sets its own criteria, reporting cadence, and review checkpoints.
Delivery is channelled through accountable partners—schools, clinics, and community organisations—so that support remains traceable and governed under agreed standards.
The foundation maintains a calm, institutional posture: no campaign language, no urgency appeals, and a focus on reliability over volume.
