Bridging Africa and Black America Incorporated

We've all witnessed a significant influx of asylum seekers from West Africa, many of whom are fleeing hardships in their home countries. These brave individuals arrive in NYC with dreams of a better future but face immense challenges, particularly in language and integration.

-The Challenge-

The majority of these newcomers come from French-speaking African countries and are not yet able to work as they await legal status and work authorization. Without a basic understanding of English, they struggle to navigate daily life, access essential services, and prepare for future employment opportunities. The language barrier isolates them, making their already difficult transition even harder.

-Our Solution-

BABA, Inc. recognizes this urgent need and is poised to expand our adult education program specifically tailored for these new community members. Our program will provide comprehensive English language classes, focusing on practical skills that will enable students to integrate into American society and prepare for the job market. With your support, we aim to raise $20,000 to make this vital program a reality.

-Why This Matters-

By donating to this campaign, you are not just providing education; you are giving hope. You are enabling asylum seekers to gain the language skills necessary to communicate effectively, access services, and ultimately secure employment once they receive work authorization. Your support will help them build a new life with dignity and self-sufficiency.

-How Your Donation Will Be Used-

- **Hiring Qualified Instructors:** Skilled teachers experienced in teaching English as a Second Language (ESL).
