Become a member of our team!

In eastern Congo, Mamas for Africa is a household name. We take care of survivors of sexual violence. We shelter them, take them to the hospital if necessary and pay the bill. We give them psychological assistance. With care, prevention, mediation and awareness raising, we are the only hope for many survivors.

This is only possible thanks to your help:
