Organization Information

Mission Statement

To create long-lasting change and shape our volunteers into global citizens who understand the unique political, social, economic, and cultural landscapes of the countries they work in and how humanitarian issues are created in the first place.

Description

For over 15 years, African Impact has been operating volunteer projects, internships, and study abroad programs in 10 countries across Africa.

We believe in the philosophy of "giving a hand up, not a hand out". This means we work with communities to identify their needs and offer support through volunteer assistance and, in some cases, donations and fundraising from our charity organization, the African Impact Foundation.

We help create a strong foundation by empowering individuals and communities to be self-sustaining and then slowly withdraw support and move on to other initiatives and projects. This ensures they are able to support their families, pursue their dreams, and develop their countries without being dependent on aid.

Our organizations and partners:

Our projects are developed hand in hand with local communities and we work in collaboration with local NGOs, schools, hospitals, clinics, women’s groups, and organizations across the continent to ensure the work we do meets the needs of the communities and contributes to long term, sustainable change.
