Review for Action in Africa Inc., Aspen, CO, USA
I have worked with Action in Africa for over 10 years and can honestly say that the experience keeps getting better and better. This organization tackles education and community development holistically, providing primary, secondary, and even university scholarships to send kids to school, while offering supplemental educational programming at a community center that has quickly become the center of Nakuwadde, the village where the group is based. These classes at the community center include arts and crafts, music and dance, story telling/creative writing, and debate, and they are designed to help the students think both creatively and critically. Via its scholarship program and community center programming, AIA has impacted the lives of thousands of students!
I have traveled to Nakuwadde to work with Action in Africa 5 times, and I can attest to the amazing work being done on the ground there. This group is a living testament to the fact that successful nonprofits are built though experience! Really excited about what the future holds for Action in Africa.
