Below are some of the latest news articles from across Africa; the stories we are currently following as we continue to assist our grassroots partners in Africa. As an African-based organization, we take pride in letting our partners direct us to where they need us the most in their communities.
Now, we want to share updates from across the continent that inspire our work and motivate us to keep building a bright future for African youth and the communities they live in
