ASDF is the US 501 (C)3 for tax deductible, which is a Sudanese led international nongovernmental organization based in Denver Colorado, USA that is founded on the mission of bringing critical support and serving vulnerable disadvantaged people in the war affected areas, displaced people, refugees and local remote under-served communities by supporting them in the rebuilding of their lives.

“The African Sustainable Development Foundation (ASDF) is an international nongovernmental organization (NGO) that brings hope, empowerment and community development through transportation services, healthcare, education, entrepreneurships, small businesses development, and products for women, children, youth and vulnerable people and under-served communities who are refugees and displaced people in Western Ethiopia and other areas in South Sudan/Africa. To improve their lives and to provide a sustainable future for themselves, their families and communities.

Vision

ASDF envisions a unified Africa that is self sustaining and economically robust. Through cooperation with other African led NGOs as well as governments, we foresee Africa’s future as the leading global model for sustainable and innovative solutions to problems such as poverty, drought, and tropical disease. This include building strong partnerships with both local and international organizations, communities, and donors.

Why we are Different

ASDFN is led by a former refugee, Juanis K. Lual, who spent seven years in a refugee camp similar to those in Gambella. Juanis’ own personal experience in addition to his education makes him an expert in humanitarian crisis. He has experienced the obstacles faced in this very important work from both sides.
