Corporate Partnerships, Business Giving and Employee Donations

We invite you to consider sponsoring or partnering with Develop Africa. Business and organizational partnerships are a great way to boost aid to Africa. According to American Charities and Project ROI, a well-designed corporate social responsibility program can increase employee engagement by up to 7.5%, increase employee productivity by 13%, reduce employee turnover by 50%, and increase revenue by as much as 20%. That's a fantastic difference a partnership can make. Check out the partnerships with Develop Africa that are already having fun and making a difference.

Together, we can help change lives in Africa!

1 percent for the planetIt all started when two businessmen met and bonded over their love for the outdoors. Realizing their responsibility to protect our Planet, they decided to give 1% of their sales back to the environment—whether or not they were profitable. Soon after our inception, 1% of the Planet's mission began to represent globally. The idea was simple: because companies profit from the resources they take from the earth, they should protect those resources. The global and the network prove that anyone can make a difference.

Develop Africa is proud to be a part of the 1% for the Planet network, which connects businesses and nonprofits to protect the Planet. If you own a business, consider joining 1% for the Planet, naming Develop Africa as your beneficiary. Everyone wins! For more information, please visit www.onepercentfortheplanet.org

 

 

Computer Equipment for Kids

The Computer Equipment for Kids program provides computer equipment to students in K-12 grades. We work with schools and programs to provide computer equipment to families who cannot afford them.   We take old/used laptops/tablets, refurbish them (cleaning the system, installing a new Operating System, fixing minor issues, etc.), and deliver them to the students (mail for folks outside Northern Virginia). We firmly believe everyone should have the right to technology and access to the internet. Just think about how having a  computer in your home has helped you learn things you never would have had access to the local library.

Mission Statement: Get technology into the hands of students to enhance their learning experience through the internet

Give the Gift of Joy This Holiday Season 🎁


You can light up a child's life in Africa this holiday season. Imagine the joy of a young girl opening her very first book or a boy receiving a backpack filled with school supplies to fuel his dreams. For many children, a holiday gift isn't just a moment of happiness – it’s a message of hope, love, and possibility.

At Develop Africa, we believe every child deserves to feel special, especially during the holidays. But for too many children in underserved communities, the season comes and goes without even a small token of celebration. With your help, we can change that.

A donation of just $25 can provide a meaningful gift – a backpack, school supplies, or even a toy – to a needy child. Your generosity will show them that someone far away cares deeply about their future and happiness.

Make this holiday season unforgettable for a child. Please donate now to our Holiday Gift for a Child campaign and be part of a life-changing moment. Together, we can spread joy, ignite hope, and make the holidays magical for children in Africa.
