It's been six years since the launch of Institute for Social Advancement (ISA). We are now working with students, entrepreneurs and refugees across 3 countries and can only hope to grow.

We are in need of your help as we work with Somalian refugees in the Southeast border of Ethiopia, working with aspiring tech entrepreneurs, and creating the next generation of scholars.

Now we turn to YOU to help us expand and build a legacy for communities in Eastern and Southern Africa. Help us change the world with every like, share and dollar.

Help us establish sustainable programs to help aid communities to livable wages and brighter futures.

The U.N. Security Council unanimously approved a resolution Thursday that for the first time recognizes the link between conflict and hunger and strongly condemns the use of starvation as a method of warfare.
