About Us

We are a global community of change makers.

Africa is a continent with a population as diverse as it is inspiring, yet one aspect most communities in Africa share is a tenacity to survive. Many have faced unimaginable hardships, including war, famine, and disease as they struggle to provide their families with basic human needs.

This is why the Obakki Foundation exists. Our work in South Sudan, Uganda and Cameroon focuses on pillars of development including clean water, education, agriculture, women’s initiatives, vocational training and medical care.

The Obakki Foundation has drilled 1,000 water wells in South Sudan, bringing clean water to over 2 million people. In Cameroon, Treana has supported various orphanages and created 12 schools, including vocational programs and farming projects, giving thousands of young students an opportunity to reach their potential. In Bidi Bidi, the world’s largest refugee camp in Uganda, we are working to transition it from a crisis settlement to a sustainable city, with projects focusing on clean water, education, women’s initiatives and other basic needs.

To date we have helped over 2 million people and we’re just getting started. The Obakki clothing line, together with angel investors, covers all administrative costs, allowing 100% of all donations to go directly to our projects.

At the Obakki Foundation we treat our supporters as partners in our efforts,
providing them with regular updates that directly connect them to the projects they support.
