LEADERSHIP & ENTREPRENEURSHIP INCUBATOR (LEI) PROGRAM
LEI Program works closely with partner schools, business professionals and community leaders to deliver 21st century skills to disadvantaged youth. Our three-pronged participatory approach – Job Readiness, Entrepreneurship Skills and Personal Development – equips young people with the tools they need to plan and achieve a successful future.
GIRLS' ADVANCEMENT PROGRAM (WEZESHA VIJANA)
In partnership with community based organizations, our Girls Advancement (Wezesha Vijana) Program introduces adolescent girls, their mothers, and male peers to reproductive health rights, puberty, hygiene, personal safety, social support and financial literacy. Our data demonstrates a direct impact on healthier girls’ choices, improved school attendance, and academic performance.
ACCELERATED LEARNING IN THE CLASSROOM PROGRAM
Accelerated Learning in the Classroom has two strong components:
student centered teachers’ training and digital technology into rural classrooms. This program is a learner-centered educational model to elevate quality of teaching and to foster the development of critical thinking skills for students.

WHATS THE LATEST?
In December we host 100+ young people from East Africa (Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda) who will deepen their skills in creating jobs in their home communities, enterprise development, and job readiness while being a positive ethical leader in their community.
For the first time in Asante Africa’s history the African teams and the USA team are challenging each other to match dollar for dollar raised. For every dollar they raise, we match it and currently they are ahead.
Help us achieve our 25,000 challenge match.
