Project Description

The African Test was founded with the help of MakeSense consultants at Grenoble Ecole de Management (France). Africa Test aims to help young children exit poverty through the learning of new skills and creative initiatives.

Africa Test invite volunteers to Africa and invite them to own a project of their own to create an impact on children - ( http://www.theafricantest.com/payback.aspx ).

 Africa Test has recently contracted the S.S.M.A.R.T Centre, a centre where all the items helping the creativity of children are stored. The centre is resourced through donations and Africa Test aim to equip the centre with instruments, IT equipment and books. The first donation was made last summer and the money went into the construction of the centre

The African Test (through The Lifestyle and The Chase) offers the opportunity to immerse yourself in Africa by living like an African and participating in day to day outdoor activities (Treasure Hunting, Selling in the market).
