Organization Profile

SHINE AFRICA FOUNDATION.

Formerly known as Shine Africa Ministries, in 2013 the organisation was re-branded as Shine Africa Foundation. We collectively felt this new name encompasses the strength of our work as a foundation for sustainability together with our broad spectrum for programs. Our motto ‘Sustainable empowerment of our communities’ encapsulates the beliefs and ideals that guide our organisation.

About Us

Shine Africa Foundation is a faith based, non-profit, non-governmental organisation (NGO) established in 2006 by a group of local individuals who felt compelled to respond to the needs of vulnerable and marginalised people in the local communities particularly affected by civil war and poverty. Shine Africa’s main focus is to empower the local people, and create sustainable change. Our main programs are centred on public health, education, livelihoods, food security and human rights.
