Allacrossafrica Security Rating

All Across Africa is a fair trade certified benefit corporation. Benefit corporations combine the best of the non-profit and business worlds. The benefit corporation structure allows All Across Africa to focus on its mission of fighting poverty and restoring hope to the poor and marginalized in East Africa by providing economic opportunity through growing and expanding markets in the West. We truly believe that job creation and education improve people’s lives and allow for sustained economic growth. We focus on training and equipping the rural poor with the capabilities necessary to benefit from the opportunity of participating in local and global markets. Our efforts go beyond simple vocational training and extend into personal finance, health and reconciliation. The artisans we work with are widows, rural weavers, genocide perpetrators and survivors, orphans, street children, and rural farmers. We currently work with more than 3000 weavers on a regular basis. Each basket made and sold means food and medicine, education, community, and security for our weavers— and each basket means new life. Governments and corporations can execute vast projects, but individuals have a unique power and privilege to impact other individuals on a personal level. Our organization exists for the resilient people of Rwanda, Uganda and other African countries and thrives because of the partnerships with individuals like you who support these women, men and their families.
