Africa Hope Development Foundation

About Us

A foundation built to reach the whole nation.

Our mission, our aim, our belief — and the departments carrying the work forward.

Our Mission

To be a socio-economic liberation conveyor belt — fulfilling our social responsibility in a responsible and engaging manner through unrestricted, comprehensive public health outreach interventions and educational programmes for the vulnerable and incarcerated, and for victims of societal ills — rendering emergency disaster relief aid to the underprivileged, to orphans, and to communities in conflict or devastated by war, across Southern Africa and beyond our borders.

Our Aim

To create sustainable projects that benefit our country and continent, bringing about transformation and advancement for the people we serve.

Our Belief

We believe that the most important resource of Africa is its people — especially the vulnerable, the under-privileged, those born with health defects, orphans and children, women in poverty-stricken communities, and those who find themselves at the centre of various social ills. It is imperative that we help our beneficiaries strengthen themselves, sustaining their own lives while maintaining their dignity and self-worth.

Our Values

What guides how we work

Giving Hope

Supporting the desolate, needy, elderly, and physically challenged — girl children and boy children alike, across the colour divide.

Building Futures

Aligning our work with the Harambee Prosperity Plan and AU Agenda 2063 — the Africa We Want.

United in Purpose

Embracing unity of purpose across everyone we work with and for.

Empowering Communities

Empowering entrepreneurs to build sustainable businesses and stronger communities.

Organisational Background

AHDF is guided by various UN conventions and protocols, and supports the African Union's Agenda 2063 and the Sustainable Development Goals — promoting community development programmes and providing services tailored to pressing social needs, including gender-based violence, alcohol abuse, birth defects, abortion, and baby dumping.

How We're Financed

Financing is derived primarily from members, who contribute to keep the foundation running. AHDF also raises funds through fundraising activities and by sourcing support from the African Union, its agencies, sponsors, partners, and other stakeholders.

Non-profit, non-political — and driven by six departments
