The Malyi Clan Trust Fund unites the Malyi clan through shared values, mutual support, education, and economic empowerment — building a stronger future, generation by generation.
About MACTF
MACTF (Malyi Clan Trust Fund) was founded on 23rd January 2002 in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania by Elder Daniel Malyi, Calvin Malyi and Matey Malyi. The trust exists to bring progress to the Malyi Clan through solidarity, development, and shared purpose.
To help the Malyi clansmen — supporting one another in economic, social, and personal hardship.
To be a great Union that brings lasting progress and prosperity to the entire Malyi Clan.
