YaapRoots is Massé World’s culturally grounded food assistance initiative, inspired by the Wolof word “Yaap” (meat), symbolizing nourishment, strength, and community tradition. YaapRoots provides families, especially those impacted by albinism, vitiligo and poverty, with reliable access to nutritious foods that support health, dignity, and long-term stability.
Our Mission
To eliminate hunger and food insecurity by delivering culturally respectful, nutrition assistance to vulnerable families, while empowering them with sustainable solutions that strengthen community resilience.
What YaapRoots Provides
→ Essential Food Support: Distribution of nutrient-rich foods, including meat and protein staples, to families in need.
→ Community Nutrition Packs: Monthly or emergency food bundles designed to improve health outcomes for children and adults.
→ Local Market Partnerships: Collaboration with farmers, butchers, and community vendors to stimulate local economies and ensure fresh, culturally familiar foods.
→ Emergency Hunger Relief: Rapid response support for families experiencing crisis, displacement, or severe hardship.
→ Long-Term Nutrition Support: Programs designed to reduce chronic food insecurity and promote stable, healthy living.
In many communities, food insecurity forces families to skip meals, rely on inadequate substitutes, or face malnutrition. For people with albinism and vitiligo, nutrition is even more essential, supporting immunity, overall health, and resilience. YaapRoots ensures families have access to the essential nutrition they need to grow, heal, and thrive.
