Because African Sky does not pay for travel expenses, organization salaries, or other costs, over 80% of every dollar we receive directly funds a project in Mali. With just a few hundred dollars, we can modestly and directly reach dozens and dozens of farming families through numerous, locally-driven projects. With limited financial resources and efficient management, African Sky completed 51 individual projects over the past two fiscal years.

Our Project Reports are organized according to our four service programs: Education, Community Health, Food Security, and Community Arts. The reports below include budget information and project descriptions. As you review our projects, please contact African Sky if you would like to support some of our existing programs (let us know if you have ideas for new projects). We file our project reports and project-specific budgets on-line to provide a means for donors to see exactly how we put their gifts to use in Mali.
