Our Vision & Mission

Dedicated to creating lasting change in the lives of survivors across Africa.

Our Vision

A world where survivors of gender-based violence in Africa are empowered to rebuild their lives with dignity, access quality education, achieve economic independence, and become catalysts for positive change in their communities.

Our Mission

To provide comprehensive support to survivors of gender-based violence through trauma-informed healing programs, quality education opportunities, economic empowerment initiatives, and community advocacy, creating sustainable pathways to recovery and independence.

Our Story

Founded in 2018, Strides for Africa Trust emerged from a deep commitment to address the urgent needs of survivors of gender-based violence across the African continent.

Our journey began when our founder, after witnessing the devastating impact of gender-based violence in her community, recognized the critical gap in comprehensive support services for survivors. What started as a small grassroots initiative has evolved into a trusted organization serving thousands of survivors across multiple African countries.

Today, we operate with a dedicated team of professionals, volunteers, and community partners who share our vision of a world where every survivor has the opportunity to heal, thrive, and lead.
