Development Partners
CorpsAfrica is uniquely positioned to collaborate with a wide range of Development Partners. We work closely with NGOs, development-related businesses, government officials, academics, social entrepreneurs, and others. Our Volunteers help them by directing their scarce resources to rural villages that otherwise may be difficult to reach.
CorpsAfrica Volunteers are educated on the array of development programs operating in their country and in turn, educate their host communities about these programs to help them understand how to take advantage of the services available. The networks created through this partnership-approach are beneficial to Volunteers and their communities long after the Volunteers' service ends.
