About

Chenai Kadungure, Zimbabwe Chenai has been involved in non-profit work since she was a teenager. In high School she was an Interact member. Interact taught her the value in “Service Above Self” and this attraction to serving the world has never left her. Chenai holds a BA degree in Media, Sociology and Gender Studies and an MPhil in Diversity Studies from the University of Cape Town in South Africa. While in Cape Town her experiences of xenophobia inspired her to become a part of the solution to global conflict. She has experience in research, leadership development, economic development and non-profit management. She has fundraised for philanthropic initiatives, and assisted NGOs like Open Door Education, Cycle For Understanding; The Council on International Educational Exchange (CIEE). A dedicated soldier for peace, Chenai volunteered for The Red Frogs, has been involved in various church leadership activities and serves on the Board of Directors of Mwala, a charity organization. In her spare time, she mentors and coaches. Prior to the fellowship she worked for a non-profit called The Hope Factory, a business development company owned by The South African Institute of Chartered Accountants (SAICA) which grows people, to develop businesses and impact communities. Here in Toronto she will begin mentoring and running training workshops for Woodgreen Community Services. Contact: chenaikadungure@gmail.com  https://www.linkedin.com/in/chenai-kadungure
