UTPÂ Africa at a Glance
The UTP Family knows that our strength lies not only in the words we stand by, but most importantly through the actions of our initiatives. Our Non-Profit Organization realized that by working together we could overcome our challenges much more efficiently, and that is why we ultimately decided to launch Unite The People Africa.

Unite The People Africa is a non-profit organization made up of young people in the diaspora from different backgrounds dedicated to making a difference in the world by creating a chain of solidarity among the people of Africa. This organization is dedicated to facilitating the sharing of experiences and opportunities to empower the African people.Â
UTP Africa supports other organizations and/or projects as we promote our shared ideals and programs. Aside from UTP’s own core programs, we collaborate with local organizations to raise awareness about our continents issues as a strong united front.
Words of the Founder
One Step at a Time
“There is power in unity, there is strength in numbers and there is strength in togetherness.
Growing up and living in both the United States and Senegal, I couldn’t help but notice the socio-economic gap in the Senegalese community and in Africa as a whole. It has always been a dream of mine to start an organization that does not only raise funds for people in unstable financial situations but one that also expresses togetherness, unity and equality among all people. Unite The People Africa’s goal is to create a web of relationships between Africans around the world through various programs and activities resulting in the advancement of the African continent.
