The Nelson Mandela Foundation, UNICEF, GIZ, CAMFED, Mastercard Foundation, MTN Foundation Ghana, MEST Africa, Vodafone Foundation, AMREF, Tony Elumelu Foundation, Operation Smile, Smile Foundation, Doctors without Boarders and MTN Foundation and other laudable NGOs in Africa are noted for their fight against climate change, border crisis and poverty. Others have also played key roles in the areas of health, technology, entrepreneurship and terrorism.
The inaugural list was compiled and published in March 2020 to highlight the influence of NGOs at the thick of the coronavirus pandemic while the 2022 list is launched in September to commemorate World Charity Day.
Africa’s leading PR, rating, and research organization, Avance Media have been partners since the maiden compilation.
Founder and Chief Executive of ICS Africa, Emmaline Datey, noted that the annual rankings of Top NGOs in Africa will continue to serve as a motivation to encourage NGOs or social impact organizations who have made a difference in Africa to continue to make lasting impact as well as encourage more emerging NGOs to continue to grow their brands through selfless service to Africans in consistent excellence, integrity, creativity and innovation.
