Why Donate to the African
Food and Peace Foundation?
AFPF supports Innovative Grass Roots Development and Rural Transformation in Uganda.
Since 1981, we have partnered with an indigenous, non-sectarian, Ugandan non-profit to educate and empower girls, women and unemployed youth. In a world where every small action can lead to significant change, the power of donating and volunteering can make a substantial impact.
