 Links Africa
is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization based in the Greater Washington DC Area. It was founded to support girls from
underprivileged families in Africa access quality education. The objective is to help the girls help themselves.
One of the UN Millenium Development
Goals is universal primary education by 2015. To achieve this goal, governments in developing nations declared free primary education. Millions of poor
children who were out of school because of financial constraints enrolled. Unfortunately, these children will drop out again because they cannot afford the escalating cost of post-primary education.
Poor families face the most difficulty choice of either to place food on the table or send children to school. More often than not girls suffer the blunt of poverty as they are forced to take care of their siblings and engange in child labor. Links Africa
strongly believes that the vicious cycle of poverty can be stopped if girls are supported to access quality education.
Partner with us in our effort to help girls realize
their full potential -
Support Girls Education.
