Our Mission

Ashinaga USA supports high-achieving, low-income students from sub-Saharan Africa who have lost one or both parents.

Our mission focuses on our Scholars' personal, academic and professional development:

  • We strive to instill in them the values of ethical and innovative leadership.

  • We aim to equip them with tools to succeed academically in US universities.

  • We seek to foster their desire to return to sub-Saharan Africa and to make significant contribution to social change and development in their communities across the continent.
