Nyodema Foundation (formerly Kassi Kunda Foundation)
Empowering marginalised communities, tackling poverty, and building a fairer Scotland for everyone to thrive.
About Us & Our Mission
Nyodema Foundation (formerly Kassi Kunda Foundation) is a Scottish-registered humanitarian charity based in Greater Glasgow, dedicated to supporting disadvantaged and vulnerable communities. Established from a strong commitment to protecting the fundamental human rights of marginalised groups, our work focuses on promoting long-term socio-economic integration while addressing the severe effects of poverty and social exclusion.
A significant proportion of our service users come from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) communities, as well as refugees, asylum seekers, and LGBTQI+ individuals. According to the Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD), these groups remain among the most disadvantaged in Scotland, disproportionately affected by the ongoing cost-of-living crisis. In response, we deliver a holistic approach that goes beyond essential subsistence support, offering moral and psychosocial assistance to empower individuals and families towards long-term stability and integration.
We are committed to building a fairer Scotland where people of all races, genders, sexual orientations, disabilities, and other protected characteristics (as defined in the Equality Act 2010) can thrive. At the heart of our vision is the belief that access to a fulfilling life, good health, wellbeing, and equal socio-economic opportunities are not privileges, but fundamental human rights.
