Values
Five words we live by.
Opportunity. Service. Dignity. Mentorship. Community.
Our name
Why “Our God Is Alive”.
It is the sentence we say when a teen mother walks back into a classroom, when a young woman finishes her tailoring course, when a grandmother is not forgotten. A statement of hope, and it is ours.
Where we work
From Congoto America.
We serve vulnerable communities, create opportunities, empower young people, support families and teach practical skills that lead to employment.
In the Democratic Republic of Congo and in the United States. One organisation, two countries.
Young people and anyone looking for practical skills: tailoring, cosmetology and the Sales Preparation Internship today, more pathways as we grow.
Our branch for girls, young women and young mothers. A big sister who listens, protects and guides. Mental health is at its heart.
