🌍 Harambee USA Awards 🌍

Join us at Yuma Center on October 10th to support Harambee USA Foundation!

Harambee USA Foundation is dedicated to supporting education and development in Sub-Saharan nations, while promoting a positive outlook on Africa here in the U.S.

Education at the core of the Harambee Network

The Harambee network of non-profit organizations was born "so that there would be less poverty every day, less ignorance, less doubt, less desperation, less insecurity, fewer wars, more charity and more peace" – St. Josemaría Escrivá.

Education is the secret to true human development. To educate means more than just having schools — it means planting seeds of solid personal achievement, and looking upon each human being as a whole, with physical, social, cultural, and spiritual dimensions. That's why at Harambee, we say: "Don't build schools, build character." Only in this way can we unearth the full human capacity of every man, woman, and child to forge dreams into reality and ambition into achievement.

Only Africans can determine the future of Africa… but they need a hand. 🤝

Join us Friday, October 2nd from 10:15 AM - 12:00 PM at Yuma Center Metzger Hall for our monthly Mother's Club!

This month, we're excited to welcome Claire Dixon, who will share practical, real-life advice on how to weave prayer into the busyness of daily motherhood. Come discover how prayer can be one of the best forms of self-care a mom can give herself.

She graduated from George Mason University with a degree in Communications and Public Relations, and after a brief career in marketing and graphic design, she transitioned into full-time homemaking. Claire now lives in Maryland with her husband and their soon-to-be six children!
