2 billion people suffer from malnutrition because their diets lack key vitamins and minerals. Sanku combats malnutrition and saves lives by giving small mills the tools they need to add vital nutrients to maize flour, a staple of the East African diet. Our innovative technology adds precise levels of nutrients into flour during processing and our business model offsets the cost of the nutrients added. Millers don't need to charge extra for their nutritious flour and families can afford to buy and eat healthy food everyday. Our mission: guarantee that every meal consumed by every mother and child contains live-saving nutrients, forever. To date, we have given 2.5 million East Africans access to the basic human right of nutritious food and we are on track to reach 25 million people by 2025.

🌍 Global GAIN Mission Statement Global GAIN (Grassroots Advocacy and Impact Network) exists to safeguard and strengthen democracy by preserving its professional expertise, empowering diverse and inclusive leadership, and creating resilient infrastructure capable of withstanding the erosion of democratic norms and institutions. We envision a world where resilient democratic systems are led by a richly diverse community—especially women and underrepresented voices—united across borders to defend and renew democratic values in the face of rising authoritarianism. ✊ What We Do We work at the intersection of democracy preservation, leadership development, and international solidarity, focusing on five core strategies: Preserving Democratic Expertise We respond to the dismantling of traditional democracy support systems by documenting institutional knowledge, supporting displaced professionals, and creating rapid-response transition services. Empowering Inclusive Democratic Leadership Through flagship initiatives like Democracy Pros, WomenGAIN, and global hubs such as CoKiyovu, we build inclusive pipelines and lifelong networks for diverse democracy professionals—especially women, people of color, and those navigating complex global contexts. Building Sustainable Career Pathways We offer training, mentorship, fellowships, and career stabilization tools to support democracy professionals, with a focus on transitions across election cycles and institutional collapses. Creating Alternative Democracy Support Systems In the absence of state and institutional backing, we construct new, decentralized models of democratic infrastructure—powered by philanthropy, peer networks, and a digital knowledge exchange platform. Global Collaboration for Democratic Restoration We facilitate cross-border learning, solidarity alliances, and coordinated responses to authoritarian threats through our Transnational Progressive Alliance—linking democracy leaders in the U.S. with counterparts in Europe, Latin America, and beyond. 🌱 Our Commitment In this time of global democratic crisis, Global GAIN pledges to: Protect and elevate democracy professionals on the frontlines Center women's leadership as a cornerstone of democratic renewal Create physical and virtual hubs for collaboration and training Connect diverse leaders globally to learn, build, and organize together Develop innovative, scalable tools for a new era of democracy work Global GAIN is not just preserving democracy—we are reinventing it. Through this bold, integrated vision, we are equipping a new generation of leaders with the knowledge, networks, and resilience to rebuild and transform democratic systems from the ground up.

Africa Schoolhouse (ASH) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to bringing quality education, medical care, job training and clean water to rural villages in Northern Tanzania. In order to achieve these goals, ASH works in partnership with communities and the local government to build desperately needed schools, deep wells and medical clinics, creating an environment that enables residents to live full, productive and healthy lives. ASH was founded in 2006 after village elders from Ntyula, Tanzania approached founder Dr. Aimee Bessire with the idea of building a school for their children and a medical clinic for the entire community. Dr. Bessire, who has a decades long relationship with the people of Ntulya, was determined to take action. Within six months, the Africa Schoolhouse board was assembled. ASH broke ground on its first project, the Ntulya Primary School and campus, in July 2008 and completed construction in 2010. President of Tanzania, Jakaya Kikwete, personally inaugurated the new school and declared it a model for all rural schools in the country. The villagers talked about how proud they were that the President came to visit the school they had helped to build. Following the request of the Ntulya elders, the organization completed a modern medical clinic the following year, which now serves approximately 4,500 people. ASH continued working with local communities in the region to identify need and completed the renovation of Mwaniko Secondary School and Shilanona Primary School in 2012 and 2014. Improvements at these locations included building a bio-chemistry lab and the installation of the first solar-powered computer lab in Misungwi District. ASH also trained a local work-force to help with the construction and continued maintenance of these projects. ASH's newest project is to construct an all-girls boarding school-the first in Misungwi District. This exemplary school will provide space for 360 girls in Forms 1-4, with the possibility to expand the campus and add another 80 girls in Forms 5-6 as needed in later years. Currently only 1% of Tanzanian girls complete secondary school education. They face a wide range of obstacles to their education, including everything from families who privilege the education of sons over daughters, to girls being married off at young ages, and unsafe journeys to school. One of the largest issues faced by girls is finding a safe place to live while pursuing their education. In this rural area, many girls travel long distances to reach school. Safe passage to and from school is a critical issue. We want to provide a safe living situation for young women to delight in their education. ASH is partnering with Misungwi District to build a much-needed safe haven for girls, empowering them through education to grow into strong, healthy women. In addition to a standard academic curriculum, the school will also promote leadership, entrepreneurship, social justice and care for the environment. The school will create an essential safe space where young women can successfully complete their studies and grow into empowered, independent adults. As with our other projects ASH is collaborating with the local communities, school committee, and Tanzanian government. We are building this school at the request of the local community, who identified this as their greatest need. The school will be staffed and run by the District once completed. The District has selected Florencia Ndabashe to be the school's head teacher. Ndabashe currently leads a co-ed secondary school in Misungwi and brings great energy to her work. She will be a strong leader for the girls school, inspiring her fellow teachers and serving as an excellent role model for young women.
