Our various Fundraising events

Through ORUWOCA’s fundraising events we hope to provide an opportunity for the community to hear about ORUWOCA's programs and to raise their awareness of ORUWOCA's mission to bring relief to underprivileged women and children in Africa.  Since 2003, ORUWOCA has been working in partnership with local non profit organizations and community leaders in the countries operating programs and activities designed to bring relief to underprivileged women and children in Africa.

 A Dollar for Africa Initiative

 We are seeking ways to cast a wider net of help on the Continent and hope to be able to do this through our “A Dollar for Africa Initiative.  This initiative will first target Niger, Burkina Faso, and Liberia.  Here in America, a dollar does not go very far, but in these three developing countries a dollar can buy many more life-sustaining things.  Click here for Flyer
