Our Story & Work
MOSH (Mothers of Special Heroes) was founded in 2021, driven by a mother’s love and the need to break barriers for her child and others like them. After facing the challenges of raising a child with special needs, our founder saw how many families in Africa struggled in silence.
What began as small gatherings in living rooms has grown into a movement. MOSH empowers families of children with disabilities across Africa through education, advocacy, community mobilization, income-generating projects, and creative platforms like music, art, and sports.
At MOSH, we believe no family should walk this journey alone. Together, we are creating a world where every child is valued, every voice is heard, and every mother of a special hero knows they are never alone.
Meet The Team
Together, we’re building a future where every child is valued, supported, and given the chance to thrive.
