Aid for Africa, based in Chevy Chase, MD, was founded in 2004 and brought together over 100 US-registered nonprofits working in Sub Saharan Africa, raising more than $8.5 million to support their work and amplifying their successes through outreach efforts.
The organization worked closely with its African partners to address various issues, including education, healthcare, women's empowerment, environmental conservation, and economic development. In 2012, Aid for Africa established the Aid for Africa Endowment for Food and Sustainable Agriculture at Tufts University, supporting research on the linkages between agriculture, nutrition, food security, and poverty reduction. However, as of September 1, 2020, Aid for Africa ceased operations, and its Board of Directors expressed gratitude to donors, staff, member organizations, and friends for their support.
