Our Mission: Empowering Lives
Develop Africa is a US-headquartered, 501c3 non-profit organization. We strategically empower lives in West Africa by providing education, training, and support, strengthening the communities we serve.

We foster self-reliance so that individuals, families, and communities can create positive change in their own lives.

We work closely with a partner organization in Sierra Leone - Develop Africa Sierra Leone. This helps us ensure our interventions are community-led.
