Field Base In Nigeria:

Africans In America Foundation (AIAF) Nigeria is registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission, Abuja, Nigeria and is in the process of opening its operational base in the hinterland/rural area where children and parents from poor families are falling victims to the lure of opportunity and better life promised by the human traffickers.

When fully operational, Africans In America Foundation, Nigeria, will promote public safety and security through raising awareness on social issues, accessible justice and empowerment through direct social support services, empirical research, legislative advocacy, demonstration programs and publications, building strategic partnership with government and civil society.

Our vision for African operation is very unique. Quite unlike others organizations located in mostly big cities doing only policy advocacies; our operation will be located inside the rural villages and hamlets where the poorest of the poor live and will render direct services to the socially and economically disadvantaged.

Another unique aspect of our African program is that the local natives who are versed on the issues, the terrain, the cues and nuances are trained to lead the operation.

These enable us to connect the poorest segment of the society in the harder to reach areas that remain largely un-reached and un-served.
