Those Making A Difference - Let Them Shine!

Through our efferts we:

  • Shine a spotlight on those that are making exceptional progress and help generate public support for their projects.
  • Rally and provide support for those who need assistance
  • Highlight exemplars in the civil society community to promote the message that corporations and other organizations can "do well" by "doing good".
  • Recognize the efforts of individuals and the members of the NGO community that are making exceptional efforts to honour their commitment to help achieve the United Nations Millennium Development Goals.
  • Through recognition and fund development help support those smaller and individual efforts that are making an impact but do not have the reach to increase their success.
  • Recognize, grow and nurture exceptional African non-profit organizations, socially conscious businesses and individuals worldwide to enable them achieve the greatest possible impact in their communities and also inspire more African people to become engaged in improving and create positive stories about Africa.

AfIA Social Movement

AfIAs have now shifted from just an awards to a social movement; we hope to focus our communication strategy towards high-impact non-profit organisations, social entrepreneurs, business executives, grant-makers and other progressively-minded change makers.
