Our Philosophy

ASAP Africa’s philosophy, mission, and values define who we are and where we are going. Allow us to share our vision with you.

ASAP Africa’s mission is to cultivate self-reliance in Southern Africa by empowering disadvantaged rural communities to effect fundamental and sustainable improvements in their own lives. Though a world without poverty may seem unattainable, ASAP Africa recognizes the enormous potential of what people can achieve by working together.

ASAP Africa is driven by the following affirmations:

1. Increase the long-term impact of projects by recruiting and training local staff to develop the capacity of partner communities.

2. The people living in a community are the only ones in a position to improve life within it, taking the lead and actively participating in all aspects of ASAP Africa projects.

3. Work towards our vision to promote self-help with honesty, diligence, patience, and uncompromising perseverance, battling mediocrity and complacency at all times.
