Self Help Africa believes that the continent's poorest people will only see real and lasting change to their lives through long term rural development programs like those we are supporting.
There are many ways that you can help us in this work: We need ambassadors, committee members and volunteers to help us to advocate on behalf of the communities we are working with, and support us in our fundraising activities

What difference will it make?
With your help we can enable farmers to grow more food, diversify their crops and withstand drought. We can give opportunities to entrepreneurs, set up micro-credit unions, and help those most vulnerable to climate change.
Your support for our work also makes it possible to rehabilitate the natural environment, improve access to water and sanitation. These are some of the many ways that we are making a difference - ways which are only possible with the backing that we receive from you.
