Reports
We’re very proud of this movement’s reports, our community is excited to share our milestones and stories!

We commit to mobilising our people in Africa as we launch this Movement on the 25th May 2017, when we deepen the meaning of African Liberation Day and call on all sectors of our society to mobilise and organise events in every African country that will build the momentum towards the genuine liberation of our beautiful continent.
Individual Giving
As the Africans Rising movement was being created five years ago, one of the key agreements was that the movement should be self-funded by Africans (individuals and organisations) based on the continent as well as worldwide. The founding members also welcomed any supporters who align with our values, vision and mission to participate.
In 2023, the Africans Rising resource mobilisation unit will be stepping up our efforts to make this mandate a reality. During the 2022 All African Movements Assembly participants demonstrated their support by donating. We shall be sending regular updates on what comes in and how it is being utilised.
