When others are inspired, what is impossible, becomes possible '
Stepping Stones for Africa is a Dutch charitable non-profit organisation. Our organisation was founded as a reaction on inspiring encounters in developing countries in Africa. Encounters with experts and dedicated individuals and organisations who are working hard in the field of poverty reduction en by their work contribute to better local living conditions.
In their work, these individuals and organisations are confronted with all kinds of boundaries or a lack of means and because of that, cannot reach their goals. In our projects we focus on these inspired individuals and organisations. We want to work together with them and provide, find or be the ‘Stepping Stone’ to realisation of their ideals, dreams and goals.
Sharing inspiration
By sharing the inspiring stories of these people and organisations, we hope to inspire you. We have learned that inspiration is mutually contagious and can make things possible that were thought unpossible before.
