AfricanGenesis Education 4 Kids

I am a new chaperon for the kids in this amazing program! Every year, each chaperon tries to raise $700 (or more) towards the funding for the educational african genesis

materials and trips associated with this program.  

 Program Information

The African Genesis Corrective History Educational Program, known as African Genesis Institute, is a proactive, 3 semester, educational and cultural program for African American and Latino youth between the ages of 7 and 14.

African Genesis Institute is a “school without walls” focused on developing an understanding and awareness of the African experience in America. Over this 27-month period students are exposed to their rich and extraordinary ancient African history through 8 weekend classes and 4 field trips. At the end of the program the students sojourn to Africa where they examine the land of their ancestors and share their culture and lifestyle with African youth.

All youth who desire to participate in the program are accepted and the trip to Africa is free to the students, serving as the graduation reward for those who complete the program.

The Teen Summit 1000 Sojourn to Africa
Every student who completes the 27-month program will travel to Africa. Students visited Senegal and The Gambia in 1998, Ghana in 1999 and Egypt in 2000-2010. Completion of assignments, maintaining a minimum “C” average in school, attending all field trips and bi-monthly classes and participation in fund-raising activities are crucial elements for completing the program. It is our belief of that this unique opportunity for those students to visit the motherland, listen and learn from the elders and dialogue with their African peers will result in a life altering experience and give them a correct perspective of who they are, their true history and their innate ability to succeed against all odds.
