Who We Are

African Girls Hope Foundation

African Girls Hope Foundation (AGHF) exists to provide school aged girls in Sub-Saharan Africa with a quality formal education. By empowering them through education, these girls will gain the knowledge and confidence to grow into women who will positively contribute to their communities, nations and the world.

AGHF has partnered with schools in different villages in the South Kivu in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), as well as Release International Mission in Kenya.

Of the girls who are selected to become beneficiaries through our worldwide partners, 99% are orphans.
