You've decided that
Africa is where you want to help and ICAfrica is
the partner organization you want to work with to
achieve your dream. How do you
help us help others? The possibilities are
endless.
Pick a
Program or Project
There are many
different ways you can reach out to communities in
Africa. First, you may wish to identify what you
or your organization is passionate about.
Are you
interested in addressing poverty in Africa and the
root cause of it, which is unemployment?
Are you
more concerned about food production, availability
of water, community development, health,
education, etc?
Regardless of your
charitable goals, ICAfrica is engaged in a wide
range of related programs within the framework of
our main focus area which is Poverty Reduction
through Jobs Creation. We will help you find
the right avenue.
Our programs
revolve
primarily around creating jobs through micro enterprise
development. Our main idea is that when people have reasonable
jobs they are able to take care of
their personal and community economic needs in food, health,
water, roads, the
environment, education and much more. You can
support ICAfrica in any of these areas
or donate without restrictions, allowing us to use
your support where it is most needed.
How you help
really depends on your interests.
Who
Raises Funds?
No group is too large or too small to host a
successful fundraiser. Here are some examples:
Community: Churches, mosques
and synagogues; youth groups and neighborhood
organizations; civic groups, professional
organizations and police/firefighter
organizations; and more.
Scholastic: Athletic teams,
student government, fraternities and sororities,
theater clubs, language clubs, band/choir/glee
clubs, cheerleaders, debate teams, science clubs
— even grade school classes are not too young.
Friends and family: Quilting
circles, book clubs, family reunions, marathon
training groups, exercise groups and special
occasions (in lieu of wedding gifts or funeral
flowers, as birthday gifts or to mark other
occasions).
