Background:

Originally from DR Congo, I came to Dzaleka 13 years ago with film-making skills. After identifying the critical need for education in our community, I established Comfort the Community to provide quality education to both refugee and local children. Our school has grown from a rented church to a proper school facility, demonstrating the power of community-driven solutions.
