Who We Are

The Madagascar–U.S. Development Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving lives and expanding opportunities for vulnerable communities across Madagascar. We build bridges between partners in the United States and local leaders in Madagascar to deliver sustainable, community-driven solutions that create lasting impact.


Our Mission

Our mission is to transform hardship into hope by supporting children, families, and communities through education, healthcare, food security, disaster relief, and economic empowerment programs that strengthen long-term stability and independence.


Our Vision

We envision a future where every child and family in Madagascar has access to education, safety, opportunity, and the resources needed to thrive with dignity and self-reliance.


What We Do

• Support education through school supplies, scholarships, and teacher development

• Improve health through clinics, nutrition programs, and clean water initiatives

• Provide disaster relief and emergency assistance to vulnerable communities

• Promote food security and sustainable agriculture

• Empower families through small business and economic development opportunities


Our Approach

We believe real change comes from working alongside local communities. That’s why we partner with local leaders and organizations in Madagascar to design programs that are culturally informed, sustainable, and led by the people they serve. By connecting resources and supporters in the United States with grassroots initiatives in Madagascar, we ensure every contribution creates meaningful, long-term impact.
