Primary Exempt PurposeOutreach Africa Inc is a unique, grassroots organization which serves the many critical needs of the South Sudanese refugees in Hampton Roads VA. We provide for them locally by helping them meet their emergency medical and financial needs and by directing them to local resources. We help their families globally by educating their child relatives left in African refugee camps (via local schools) and providing them funds to meet their emergency good, travel, and medical needs.PrimaryExemptPurposeTxt

Our African Boarding School program is our largest program. The program matches the relatives, who remain in Africa, of local South Sudanese refugees with American sponsors to provide for their education, nutritional, shelter and safety needs. Over 100 refugee relatives have now graduated high school in Kenya and Uganda through our sponsorship program. Several are now college graduates in public health, nursing, agriculture, electrical engineering, and accounting.$102,275Yes (X)$102,275
Our second largest program is our Overseas Living Assistance program which seeks to meet the needs of South Sudanese refugee family members who remain in Africa by providing funds for their housing and food needs. Many of these families are severely impoverished and at risk. They would be homeless or starving without intervention.$26,775Yes (X)$26,775
Our fourth largest program is our Overseas Medical Assistance program. This program seeks to help the family members, who remain in Africa, of our South Sudanese refugee community members by providing funds for their emergency or chronic medical needs. Due to extreme living conditions and malnutrition, many of these individuals have health issues and by networking with African doctors and raising funds, we are able to help them get the care they need.$13,119Yes (X)$13,119
Our third largest assistance program is the Local Living Assistance program. This program meets various needs within our local refugee community that may not be met by other local assistance to include clothes, food, rent assistance, transportation assistance, medical bills, etc.$16,266$16,266
Omorembe Orphanage - Omorembe Orphanage is an Outreach Africa project somewhat separate from the South Sudanese refugee community needs. We have partnered with a Kenyan orphanage near Kisii, Kenya and over the years have sought out projects and support that can improve the lives of the 40+ children living there. These have included fresh water wells, water filtration, gardening, clothes, dormitories, livestock, medical needs, food support, education support, and more.$10,775Yes (X)$10,775
