About us in Italy
Happydu Onlus, previously called Mammadù Italia Onlus, is a non-profit organisation founded back in December 2010, following a volunteering experience made by two friends at an orphanage in Windhoek, Namibia. Meeting that background, and discovering those children’s spontaneity and smile, changed their lives. On the day the two friends were meant to leave Namibia, the children of the orphanage asked them to make a promise: not to abandon them. From that promise and the new meaning that the two friends decided to give their lives, the organisation was founded.
From 2010 to today, Happydu Onlus has been growing and can now rely on many partners and supporters, who believe in our work and in our transparency. We are grateful to all for these wonderful results in support of the education of over 700 children and teenagers!
On April 17, 2019 Mammadù Italia Onlus Assembly of Members, unanimously accepted the proposal of the Governing Body to amend the Statute and to change the name into HAPPYDU ONLUS.
The choice of changing our name comes from an "evolutionary" path of our project model, in which we deeply believe (see the project).
The Board of Directors members are still the ones you all already know (Andrea, Monica, Federico, Daniela, Annalisa and Giulia), same for our beautiful logo.
Our Tax Code 03708150168 (important for donating the 5xmille in Italy), our bank details/Iban (IT71L0335901600100000016558 - c/c at BanK Banca Prossima), as well as the registered office and the operating one remain unchanged.
Instead, our website has changed to www.happydu.org and all the Board members’ personal email accounts have changed accordingly.
So beware: ONLY the NAME changes, but it’s always us and therefore everything else is maintained and preserved exactly as you know it and how it was achieved TOGETHER.
