About Us

SANDEF, our foundation, is intricately woven into a journey defined by the transformative impact of mental health advocacy.

Empowering Community Wellness

At Sage & Enamel Foundation (SANDEF), we are more than just a non-profit organization; we are a manifestation of a profound belief — the belief that stable mental health and access to good medical care is an extended right to life. Rooted in the conviction that these fundamental elements are not mere necessities but powerful catalysts for positive change, SANDEF is committed to not only meeting individual needs but also empowering people and fortifying entire communities.

Our inspiration is drawn from a vision of a world where every individual has access to essential healthcare. We strive to transform this vision into reality by weaving a tapestry of support that reaches far beyond basic provisions.

SANDEF stands at the intersection of two critical pillars – mental health and medical healthcare – recognizing them as essential ingredients for societal well-being. We view them not only as basic rights but as tools that can elevate communities, making them resilient and thriving.

Our Vision

To become Africa’s foremost mental health organization, dedicated to serving individuals living with mental illnesses, with a special focus on those affected by schizophrenia and bipolar disorders. We aspire to lead in providing comprehensive support and advocacy to promote mental wellness across the continent.

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide tailored assistance and support to individuals living with mental illnesses, particularly those diagnosed with schizophrenia and bipolar disorders. Through innovative programs and community outreach initiatives, we aim to enhance access to quality mental health services, reduce stigma, and foster a supportive environment conducive to healing and recovery.
