O “Projecto Esperança” é uma iniciativa da Missionária Maria Olivia e mulheres do Movimento das Mães Cristãs Intercessoras, com o apadrinhamento do Dr. França Magaia, que em 2004 iniciou o apoio escolar e alimentar a 100 crianças do Bairro de Mincanhene, 3 vezes por semana.
Pelo facto desta acção ter tido uma grande aceitação por parte das famílias das crianças abrangidas, o projecto foi alargado para os bairros de 29 de Setembro, onde desde 2005 funciona o centro aberto e escola oficial, que não só beneficia as crianças do centro assim como as crianças da comunidade no geral, albergando actualmente 380 crianças ( crianças do projecto ) e 1000 crianças ( externas )que se beneficiam da escola bem como 15 senhoras no curso de alfabetização de adultos, como forma de empoderamento da mulher.

Justificação do Projecto.
A pobreza em Moçambique é alarmante e vasta, estimando-se que cerca de 70% da população total vive abaixo da linha da pobreza.
Os grupos mais vulneráveis são constituídos por mulheres chefes de agregados familiares, crianças e mães solteiras, sendo um dos factores que contribuem para o baixo nível de alfabetização, infra-estruturas de saúde muito fracas e a natureza das actividades económicas desenvolvidas pelas mulheres.
Devido a esta situação, aliada a prevalência do HIV/SIDA, o número de crianças órfãs e vulneráveis, tem vindo a crescer de forma assustadora em Moçambique, o que exige da sociedade civil, uma intervenção coordenada, dada a sensibilidade do grupo-alvo.
