MUSHAWAKANAKA ZIMBABWE Founded by Tafadzwanashe Mukorovi in 2017 Mushawakanaka Trust is the only Project which consists and run entirely by Volunteering Youth, a clear reflection for the level of Passion in the Industry. It is an organization that benefits and targets young amateur talent, especially in the Choral and Traditional Music Sector.

The Program started 2012 with the 1st production being a documentary called “bad times’ which was aimed at improving the lives of people living in slums. The efforts were fruitless due to lack of enough funding and the then trustees namely Farai Mugodhi & Mufaro Mudukuti got preoccupied with work/school as well as Tafadzwanashe who later moved out of the country for work.

It was at this moment the project was almost forgotten but ideas were just brewing and maturing through exposure and experience. In 2017 Mushwakanaka relaunched with a better vision and greater mission for the Zimbabwean Nation. The 1st phase of the organization which is ZimChoirs took shape mid-year 2019 and then the Journey began.

The executive committee consists of four members namely, Judith Gwande, Wendy Mutize, Joseph Ndhlovu, and Kudzaishe Mutambara. Mushawakanaka is completely run by volunteers. Mushawakanaka host two websites, mushawakanaka.com which is the main archive and zimchoirs.com which is a magazine/blogpost site. The organization Consists of three Departments, Youth Development, Arts Entertainment Department, and Community Development.
