Selection
Each year, FACE Africa selects one successful program that our team has identified and vets potential communities against that program, while building partnerships with organizations on the ground who have spent years researching the terrain and integrating within the culture in the countries where they work.

FACE Africa considers programs based on a set of selection criteria that gauges community need, program innovation and results, and operational excellence.

Our due diligence on potential organizations includes research on publicly available information; interviews with organizations’ management teams and board members; site visits; and interviews with experts in the field.

Launch
Once a Program is selected for a specific community, FACE Africa develops a team of local community members who can bring a variety of skills to the planning and work that prepares a new program for a successful  launch.
 

Support
We provide critical support during the first phase of a program’s life. In addition, FACE Africa is an on-the-ground partner invested in the early and long-term success of the Program. Beyond launch support, FACE Africa provides:

• Early-stage funding through our fundraising efforts

• Recruitment of motivated members from the local community to lead the Program

• Start-up planning to ensure that the program is adapted to meet each community’s unique circumstances

• Community outreach to key political, funding, and nonprofit organizations in the community
