Democratic Republic of the Congo – Better Community, Better World
The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) is known for representing over 200 ethnic groups and 250 languages and dialects. Although this country is one of the most resource-rich countries on the planet (with rich access to gold, tungsten and tin), most of the Congolese lack the ability to acquire electricity and a minuscule percentage of the country’s roads are paved.

Stan’s Trip
Recently, Stan Wilson, co-founder of Coafrica, took a trip to Africa to visit our current and potential project sites. While in Malawi, Stan visited Kataya, a primary school that Coafrica is building. His visit gave him--and the rest of us at Coafrica--a valuable look into the lives of the students and families that we work with.
Coafrica Founding Story
Coafrica had its beginnings in 2016 with a family contributing to a school for orphans in Zambia. Since then, it's been a process of unleashing the power of education for thousands of children throughout Africa.
