Hands For Africa provides innocent civil war victims in Africa with tools that enable them to become self-reliant. We provide immediate needs, such as food, water, clothing, and shelter, while developing and implementing successful programs that foster self-reliance. The result is a community of individuals capable of supporting themselves and their families. Our philosophy is to give people a "hand-up," not a "handout."Hands For Africa's future plan is to implement the same successful self-reliance programs in other African countries that have faced the atrocities of mineral conflicts, civil war, and genocide. We raise funds primarily through generous donors who have chosen to stand up against inhumanity. Hands For Africa, our associates, and the victims we help are extremely grateful for your support of this movement.
