In 2005, a group of concerned community members in Irvine, CA came together to talk about the millions of children in Africa whose lives have been impacted by the AIDS pandemic and how we might help. Like many Americans, we felt compelled to do something. We were also discouraged by the fact that far too often, large percentages of the donations given to help these children never actually reaches them. We wanted to help and we wanted to know that our support would truly make a difference in the lives of the children.So, we created The Africa Project, an all volunteer non profit agency working to support children in one village in Africa.
