My Nonprofit Reviews

I have had the opportunity to travel to Uganda and volunteer with Action in Africa twice over the past two years. Each time, I was completely blown away with how much this organization can accomplish with the resources that they have. It is a testament to the people running Action in Africa that they can create such an amazing sense community. During my second visit (which was three months long) I got to know the personalities that drive this organization. It really is the individuals and their motivations to embrace the Nakuwadde community that pushes this organization above and beyond.

Action in Africa takes an honest approach with its surrounding community. It does not simply take action that looks impressive, or produces impressive numbers. It takes time to have a real meaningful discussion about the individual problems in the community, and how it can effectively address them. I can say from experience that this approach has had a profound impact on the Nakuwadde community and everyone who comes to the center has an experience that is personalized for them.

This organization does amazing work!
