Sobre nosotros
"Amsha" is a swahili word meaning "wake up." Amsha Africa Foundation (AAF) is a non-denominational, U.S. non-profit organization and also a recognized NGO in the Republic of Kenya, Nigeria, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia, founded in 2008, that enhances the living standards in African slums and villages,
• by supplying these communities with food, medical aid, hygiene kits, and mosquito nets;
• by providing capacity building programs, literacy and enrichment, housing, sanitation aid, and agricultural education;
• by rebuilding schools and giving them desks, computers, uniforms, and school supplies.
Amsha Africa Foundation primarily works with registered community based organizations in rural Africa.
What we do:
• Encourage and facilitate the initiation of community based projects that are acceptable, affordable, sustainable, and aimed at improving the welfare of the community.
• Assist people from impoverished families by encouraging, education, health care and training them to undertake some of the urgently needed obligations
• Assist children and orphans living with HIV/ AIDS and rehabilitating street children.
• Helping the girl child in matters on female genital mutilation, sanitation, abuse, and rape.
• Providing basic education and vocational training courses to young people from impoverished communities with an aim of developing their personality and talents.
• Promoting charitable projects for the disadvantaged victims of famine, floods, and other calamities.
• Encouraging contribution and active involvement from members of the community, schools, churches, governments, corporations, etc, to carry out the work of poverty reduction and create awareness on the HIV/AIDS.
• Facilitate the creation of self-employment by starting informal sector development activities such as the "jua kali" initiative in Kenya.
• Promote the production of low-cost building materials, home crafts, and handcrafts.
• Train adults in modern farming techniques, health, environment, family planning, and assist them to acquire managerial skills, and provide information on starting small scale businesses.
• Provide grants for strengthening and expansion of microfinancing programs.
Programs:

We invest in technologies and methods for increasing sustainable access to clean water and hygiene.
