We believe every child deserves access to quality education, regardless of the longitude or latitude in which they are born. Education empowers children to make informed decisions, to turn dreams into reality, to reduce their families' struggle, and to facilitate the process of their communities becoming self-sustaining.
We envision African communities and families where children have the opportunity to receive a quality education to define their futures.
We increase access to education and improve the quality of learning for children in East Africa. Our approach creates safe and healthy learning environments, strengthens teaching quality, and provides merit-based scholarships.
We achieve our vision and mission through in-country collaborations with visionary local community leaders and education advocates.
We work with local program managers who are deeply committed to and passionate about creating change in their villages.
We rely on local knowledge and expertise to propose solutions that are viable and sustainable in their communities and cultures.
Approximately 90% of donations to Asante Africa Foundation support in-country programs and projects, jointly planned with local program managers. Board membership and other Foundation support are almost completely volunteer-operated. Asante Africa Foundation is not affiliated with any religious or political entity or institution. We rely solely on the generous donations of our supporters to complete projects such as building schools, waterlines, sanitation facilities, and sponsoring children's schooling.
