Woman of Imperium Africa Foundation (WiAfrica), is an Operational and Advocacy Non-Governmental Organization that provides support and empowerment to women, children and the less privileged in selected communities in Africa.

Women are the full circle. Within them is the power to create, nurture and transform, and this is why society wins when women are elevated equitably and empowered.

WiAfrica is made up of The Foundation and its members who are dedicated to fostering practical growth among women through our impact driven initiatives focused on women, children and the disabled (autism) while building each other through support.

We are inspired by these quotes towards the achievement of our goals, mission and vision:

 

 

A woman is the full circle. Within her is the power to create, nurture and transform.
