Welcome to the Africell Impact Foundation
Africell Impact is all about empowering people to contribute to their communities. We help to build strong and resilient communities by bringing people together, both digitally and physically, and connecting them to opportunities in education, the arts, healthcare and more.
ANNUAL REPORTS
OUR APPROACH
Engaging with communities
In addition to effective marketing and strong government relations, active engagement with communities is a condition for Africell's success. The Africell Impact Foundation formalises this idea by streamlining and structuring our cultural and community-focused initiatives, connecting the work we do across our operating markets and maximising its positive impact.
Supporting education and entrepreneurship by equipping people with the digital technologies needed to learn and innovate.
Giving a platform to local arts, culture and heritage and celebrating the energy and creativity of contemporary Africa.
Promoting active lifestyles, providing health-related information and resources, and helping talented athletes fulfil their potential.
