Empowering African Community Leaders in WA State
We are rising together to impact educational initiatives in the communities we serve. At Mission Africa, we are dedicated to empowering communities through education locally. Whether through our annual backpack drive, where we have provided thousands of students in King County, Washington State, with essential school supplies, or our digital navigation classes, where we have equipped hundreds of learners of all ages to master computer basics and confidently navigate advanced programs, we continue to create opportunities and drive lasting change.
Notably, we're Rising Together to develop our African Community Leaders by providing training that teaches real-world skills that can be immediately used to make a meaningful impact. We empower local leaders with practical tools and insights to grow their leadership. Featuring dynamic guest speakers with interactive discussions, activities, and dinner. We get together for our African Community Leaders Luncheon, a Symposium, an Estate Planning Workshop, and our Rise and Lead Capacity-Building Workshops.
Digital Navigation
Mission Africa is at the forefront of empowering African immigrant families, refugees, and community members by enhancing digital literacy. With free computer classes offered three times a week, we are committed to bridging the digital divide and equipping our community with the necessary skills to thrive in a technologically advancing world.
We are offering free Digital Navigation classes to African immigrant families and refugees. Additionally, our invitation extends to all community members eager to enhance their digital skills. Translation can be arranged for non-native English speakers, and laptops are provided for in-person classes. Our support doesn't end in class.

Back-to-School Community Outreach Events
With generous spirits, Mission Africa and our army of volunteers fill backpacks with school supplies every summer for kids in our community to give them a great start to the new school year.
Education Globally
We are proud to announce that our 50 scholarship students from Abia State, Nigeria have all graduated. This marks the 3rd cohort of 50 students to benefit from our 6-year scholarship, making it a total of 150 high school graduates from the program. We have had a 100% graduation rate with each cohort and 65% of our graduates have gone on to post-secondary education while others learn life skills. We’re especially grateful to you who sponsored individual students and look forward to continuing this life-changing work together, as we welcome a new cohort of students in September.
