Action Africa

Our Programs serve children & families in rural African villages; every person of the world deserves to be granted with basic human rights.

Our Programs serve children & families in rural African villages. Africa is a place of great need and great hope. With about 10% of the world's population, it is home to people weakened by the prolonged effects of untreated malaria and malnutrition, now having to fight AIDS (more than 60% of all people living with HIV/AIDS). Despite poverty and conflicts, people in rural villages are determined to

improve conditions for their children. Action Africa meets villagers at the intersection of health, education and micro-enterprise, to promote grassroots development. Free health clinics and medical programs with volunteer medical practitioners and donated supplies assist villages with no local medical facilities. Malaria and HIV/AIDS prevention education is ongoing. Provision of clean water helps promote wellness and prevent disease. Educational Outreach Centers combine distribution of much-needed donated classroom textbooks and HIV/AIDS programs. Microenterprise programs and micro-loans assist rural women and needy families to move from poverty and dependence toward economic wellbeing, and being able to support their children.
