An Unforgettable Evening for a Life-Changing Cause!
The African Gala hosted by Microfinancing Partners in Africa is not just an event; it’s an annual highlight that brings together friends, donors, and community members for a night of inspiration and impact. This gala serves as a platform to shed light on the harsh realities of extreme poverty while showcasing microfinance as a viable solution in rural areas of Africa.
