about us
Background
Coalition of Concerned Citizens for African American Children
(CCCAAC) is an African-American led non-profit international
development organizations to support Central African Regional
development/ rehabilitation in the under developed, disaster torn
and impoverished Central African Region nations.
Since our
establishment in 2010, Coalition of Concerned Citizens for African American Children has delivered more than $ 129 million in development/
rehabilitation and direct assistance to tens of millions of men,
women and children across the Central African Region / African
continent. This is because we believe that to develop Africa, the
fundamental cause of the underdevelopment and crisis in that
continent / region which are instability, terrorism, corruption,
poverty and low standard of living as a result of mass illiteracy
must be eradicated as its obvious that anything that reduces mass
illiteracy in any region of the world will inevitably reduce poverty
and elevate the standard of living of the affected people.
This is why the (CCCAAC) board is composed of almost entirely
African staff with an unparalleled knowledge of the continent - its
challenges and opportunities. Through our direct community
engagement, we have nurtured valuable relationships with key local
figures ranging from community leaders and traditional authorities
to presidents and prime ministers.
Coalition of Concerned Citizens for African American Children centers its development /
rehabilitation approach on providing & assisting the state
authorities of the nations where we work with the basic human
development needs such as: healthcare, education, economic
development, sanitation, and many other forms of assistance to the
highly vulnerable communities.
Coalition of Concerned Citizens for African American Children impact and coverage is among
the deepest of any organization working in Africa, representing
numerous projects in 7 countries Central Africa Region-wide since
inception toward making the Central African States societies
equipped to ensure that pathways out of poverty are sustained/
achieved.
ONGOING projects
Malaria Prevention products
Malaria is a life-threatening disease spread to humans by some types of mosquitoes. It is mostly found in tropical countries. It is preventable and curable. The infection is caused by a parasite and does not spread from person to person. Symptoms can be mild or life-threatening. Mild symptoms are fever, chills and headache. Severe symptoms include fatigue, confusion, seizures, and difficulty breathing. Infants, children under 5 years, pregnant women, travellers and people with HIV or AIDS are at higher risk of severe infection.
Refugees / IDP Rehabilitation
A large part of our field activities are geared towards internally displaced people (IDPs) and refugees. With the number of people who have been forcibly displaced doubling over the last decade, their health needs continue to mount, and are not always met. Our roots were put down in the camps set up for Congolese and Republique centrafricaine refugees. CCCAAC has a long history of assisting and protecting these populations.
Community Water Project
We are really proud of the work we get to do with our partners in the area of WASH (water, sanitation, and hygiene), and HIV/AIDS. Our partners, both past and present, have done absolutely amazing work providing clean water and sanitation and hygiene solutions to thousands of families in sub-Saharan Africa. We’re often asked how much it costs to build a well, but there’s actually a lot more to consider when approaching the water crisis and the water projects that our partners implement in Africa.
