CorpsAfrica Volunteers have led hundreds of community-driven projects, improving lives across rural Africa and inspiring a new generation of local leaders and changemakers.
Founded in 2011, CorpsAfrica is a growing movement of young Africans leading collaborative, transformative, and sustainable change within their own communities.
These dynamic Volunteers lead collaborative, transformative, and sustainable change in local communities.
CorpsAfrica is looking for young Africans who want to make a difference and grow through service.
As a CorpsAfrica Volunteer, you will live and work in a rural community in your own country. You will work closely with local people to plan and carry out small, important projects that solve real problems.
We welcome people from many backgrounds, including health, education, farming, environment, business, engineering, and more. You must have a college degree or similar experience, and be ready to listen, learn, and lead.
Since 2013, CorpsAfrica Volunteers and rural communities have identified and designed more than 800 projects centered on local ownership, resilience, and collaboration.
We thank all of our donors and Development Partners for supporting CorpsAfrica Volunteers and communities where they work. The organizations listed below are among over 100 partnerships with local, regional, and international organizations supporting our work.
CorpsAfrica addresses two of Africa’s most difficult challenges: engaging youth and helping rural communities overcome extreme poverty. We recruit and train motivated volunteers to live and work in rural, under-resourced areas in their own countries. They collaborate with the community to design and implement small-scale projects that address their top priorities and, by doing so, gain the skills and experience that lay the foundation for personal and professional success.
CorpsAfrica trusts youth and communities to help each other.
