About This Page
The WISE Wing preserves the living wisdom of Africa’s elders — transforming memory into meaningful income.
Through guided storytelling, audio, and publishing, forgotten voices become books, podcasts, and digital scrolls that generate lifelong royalties.
Each story heals isolation, restores dignity, and bridges generations — creating a new economy of remembrance where heritage itself becomes a source of hope and healing.
How the Wise Loop Works
Preserve Wisdom Through Storytelling
It begins in the streets, villages, and care homes. Volunteers, families, or youth groups identify elders in need — especially those who are ill, isolated, or financially struggling. Every elder discovered is a hidden library waiting to be opened.
The Memory That Heals
Storytellers or volunteers meet with the elders to listen and record their life stories, traditions, or teachings. Using simple audio, video, or written tools, they capture raw memories that carry decades of wisdom.
The Forgotten Generation
Once collected, these recordings are transformed by AI editors and cultural curators into short books, flipbooks, audiobooks, or documentaries. This is where Wanzia’s creativity shines — combining ancestral truth with modern tools to make each story timeless and accessible.
The WISE System
The finished stories are shared across digital platforms — schools, podcasts, community libraries, and global readers. They educate youth, spark pride, and reconnect generations through art, literature, and sound.
Join the WISE Movement
Help preserve living history. Adopt an elder, sponsor a storyteller, or fund a recording kit for a village program. Every contribution keeps wisdom alive — and turns memory into legacy.
When stories are told, lives are healed.
When 79-year-old Mama Achieng joined Wanzia WISE, her forgotten herbal remedies became a digital handbook called Roots of Healing. Now local women’s groups use her guide to treat everyday ailments and she earns royalties each month. “My plants now heal more than my village — they heal my life too.”

Once the last blacksmith in his town, Baba Kamau feared his craft would die with him. WISE filmed his process and turned it into a short documentary viewed by students nationwide. His skills now live on through young apprentices. “The fire still burns — only in new hands.”

Bedridden for months, Mama Fatuma began recording reflections about faith and resilience. WISE compiled her words into Letters of Light, a digital journal inspiring caregivers in two hospitals. “They treated my body — but my words treated others.”
