AFRICA FOUNDATION FOR LITERACY AND

INNOVATION  (AFLIN)

MISSION STATEMENT

AFLIN provides the opportunity for underprivileged, and poor Africans to

receive a quality education. AFLIN prepares its students for an economically free life, thereby giving them the ability to remove

themselves from poverty and be entrepreneurially self dependent. This is accomplished through the provision of

schools and centers, for both adults and children, where the students are educated

on the power of being literate.
