WHO WE ARE

We envision a world where African and blacks across the diaspora are:

In Swahili, rudisha means to go back and give back. Rudisha, Inc., a faith-based organization, focuses its efforts on going back to Africa to restore and reclaim by sharing God’s love for His people. As Christians are mandated to spread the gospel of Christ throughout the world, Rudisha coordinates crusades, revivals, and community outreach in Africa. Rudisha gives back by providing material support to people of the African Diaspora who are poor and oppressed. With special emphasis on Africa’s widows and orphans, more than half of Rudisha’s activities are conducted in or directed at people of African descent.

WHAT WE DO

Go Back. Give Back.

Every three years, Rudisha, Inc. selects a project to support both the physical and spiritual needs of diasporans. Each project improves the life chances of our brothers and sisters by using solutions that have been proven to break the cycle of poverty, bring forth opportunity, and provide an awareness of Jesus Christ.

Rudisha has engaged in projects in Ghana, Benin, and Kenya.

Our current project is in partnership with the Advance Ghana Foundation. We endeavor to:

Assist at least 70 orphans to meet the seven basic needs of housing, food, clothing, medical, emotional, recreational, and spiritual care.
Provide sanctuary to children who have been abandoned or left to provide and protect themselves due to poverty or the death of their parents by supporting the Hope Center Orphanage Home.
Support the infrastructure of the Interhomly Academy School for the Needy in Society in Accra, Ghana.
Lead at least 100 people to Christ, restoration, and/or deliverance through Christ.
The fundraising goal is set at $50,000.
