On Friday, April 13th AVC successfully reached our crowdfunding goal of $5000 to support the volunteers. Supporters showed an incredible groundswell of support as we surged ahead in the last week of the campaign and surpassed our goal. Thank you so much to everyone who pledged to the campaign! Paying the AVC volunteers a living stipend allows these incredible leaders to devote a year to service in the community, so the campaign was an important part of putting Africans in control of development in Africa and creating ground-up social change.
Mission:
Africa Volunteer Corps’ mission is to nurture a generation of African leaders dedicated to strengthening homegrown development by providing opportunities for practical training and job placement.
The overarching goal of Africa Volunteer Corps is to harness the power of motivated, educated Africans and put it to use for locally-initiated development projects in Africa, opening doors for Africans to leverage their own resources and strengthening grassroots development efforts.
Creating a springboard for leaders and bolstering ground-up social change efforts, we position Africans to drive development on their own continent.
