Tackling poverty and improving the lives of local communities is our goal. Our projects we will work with the local people and fully engage with them to undertake a range of integrated development programmes amongst rural communities.
United Africa was an idea we had after spending many years in Africa and having first hand witness to much of the poverty and one of the founders having grown up in a small village just outside Bujumbura first hand witnessed and survived such adverse conditions.
