Our team

It is the helper’s heart that beats in our team
and makes a big things possible!

We live our mis­sion of help­ing simply and effi­ciently daily. Our team is made up of exper­i­enced indi­vidu­als from many back­grounds who volun­teer for Mama Africa. What unites us is the irre­press­ible will to help. Where it is really neces­sary. Thanks to lean struc­tures, every euro can flow into our projects.
