Our Impact

We’ve worked on improving the lives of over 20,000 young people through direct practice. Young people from diverse backgrounds have a significant impact on us and on all our activities. They highlight the parts of society that are broken, so we can help them in every possible way to regain hope and flourish in life.

What We Do

SARAFACDI works to bridge the gap between rural and urban communities by promoting inclusive education, digital literacy, youth empowerment, gender equality, and community development. Through innovative programmes, scholarships, STEM training, and advocacy, we equip vulnerable children and young people with the knowledge, skills, and opportunities needed to thrive and lead positive change.
