howFar will you go?
howFar in the Congo is a nonprofit humanitarian aid organization compassionately dedicated to improving the lives of the citizens that have been displaced by the ongoing armed conflict and human rights abuses in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
You can help us build a life changing complex in Goma, Democratic Republic of Congo. "The Democratic Republic of Congo is one of the countries with the largest number of out-of-school children: it is estimated that 3.5 million children of primary age are not in school” (global partnership for education 2014). Hope Village will give orphan children that have been displaced by the ongoing armed conflict and human rights abuses in the Democratic Republic of the Congo a safe place to live along with the education that will transform their lives.
