Tafarah Foundation – Second Chances, Brighter Futures
Location: Dubai
- September 2025
It’s never too late to rewrite your story
At Tafarah Foundation, we believe everyone deserves a second chance. Based in Dubai, our organisation partners with the Matrix Disciplinary and Training Centre in Zimbabwe to provide life-changing opportunities for individuals who have successfully completed rehabilitation and training programs. Too often, young people who recover from drug and substance abuse return home only to face unemployment, hopelessness, and relapse. Tafarah Foundation exists to break this cycle. By creating a pathway to employment in Dubai, we help restore dignity, independence, and purpose to those who are ready to rebuild their lives.
What We Offer
Through our partnership with Matrix Disciplinary and Training Centre, Tafarah Foundation provides a holistic pathway from recovery to real-world opportunities.
01
Employment in Dubai
We connect participants with a wide range of employment opportunities in Dubai. Whether it’s hospitality, retail, logistics, security, or skilled trades, our goal is to place each individual in a role that matches their strengths and abilities. Employment is not just about earning a salary — it’s about creating stability, independence, and pride. With a legal and structured process, candidates are given the tools to build sustainable futures abroad.
02
Life Skills & Mentorship
Relocating to a new country can be both exciting and overwhelming. That’s why we provide continuous mentorship and life skills training to help our candidates adjust. From cultural orientation to financial management, communication, and professional etiquette, we ensure every participant is fully prepared. Our mentors, both in Zimbabwe and Dubai, walk alongside candidates to guide them through challenges and celebrate their achievements.
03
Dignity & Purpose
Many individuals who recover from substance abuse or complete training camps risk falling back into old habits when faced with unemployment or idleness. At Tafarah Foundation, we are determined to break that cycle. By placing candidates in meaningful employment, we restore their sense of dignity and direction. Purposeful work not only keeps individuals occupied but also gives them a reason to stay committed to their recovery and personal growth.
04
Second Chances
We believe in the power of redemption. No matter the mistakes of the past, every person deserves the chance to rewrite their story. Tafarah Foundation exists to offer that second chance. By partnering with Matrix Disciplinary and Training Centre, we give graduates a bridge to new opportunities that lead to brighter tomorrows. Our message is simple yet powerful: “It’s never too late to rebuild your life and reclaim your destiny.”
