Organizations One of the fears that many individuals face when sending funds or donations overseas, is the legitimacy of the receiving organizations. While this cautiousness is quite warranted, it slows down the process of getting help to needy organizations. On our trip, we were able to visit many organizations in South Africa and Kenya. Below are links of these organizations that we have personally visited or have been able to verify through in country contacts. Each organization will have its own page on the Africa's Angels site, which will give pertinent details, such as donations needed, volunteers needed, mission, contact information, etc. We hope that this area of the site will help highlight organizations that are doing good work.
