The courses ----HAVE
The courses offered by the Masters of social and cultural foundation in xxxxxx University has have brought a great interest to me.

I have been longing to continue my study on in such a creative and well developed program.

Many years ago, I have always had the desire to begin a not-for-profit organization dedicated to helping and serving young people in Cxxxxx. ----Very good! This sentence is good, and the whole paragraph is good. I think you should move the first paragraph to the end so that it becomes the conclusion and make this paragraph the first paragraph of the essay.

:-)

"Many years ago, I have always had"... seems not quite right.

Either you had this desire many years ago or you have always had it, not both. Or you can say "As far back as I can recall, I have always had..."

One of the most important things that I discovered while writing my letters of intent/personal statements was to speak in an active voice. Get rid of all the passive undertones and your essay/letter will have more life. I've gone through your essay and added my own thoughts to improve the flow and tone of your letter. These are only suggestions - I'm sure you'll be able to come up with something better - and I hope they're helpful.

I recommend just jumping right off into what you want from the university instead of giving a rather slow and unoriginal introduction via "my name is..." You could keep your second paragraph and spice it up a bit with more vivid imagery or even try something like: I wish to enroll in the Master's of Social and Cultural Foundation at ____ University.
