    • Mission

    Innovation Respecting Culture. IRC Africa, a registered 501(c)(3) organization (tax exempt) in the USA, operates in southern Madagascar, a region facing economic hardships and significant unemployment among women. We focus on empowering women, enhancing their safety and independence, and addressing gender-based violence, sexual exploitation, and forced early marriages. Employment is critical to economic independence, so we promote professional training for women and integrate digitization into our activities to bridge the digital divide. Additionally, we provide emotional, medical, and legal support to women while respecting local culture and ensuring sustainability for a secure and sustainable future

    About Us

    What We Do

    IRC Africa empowers communities in southern Madagascar. We’ve provided sorghum seeds to hundreds of families facing drought, restoring their economic independence. We’ve enrolled 15 children in private schools for quality education, supported women in starting businesses, and funded vocational training to strengthen independence. By providing nutritional assistance, we address hunger and improve health, with a goal to eliminate food insecurity. Your support makes this possible. Join us-every donation counts!

    Planned Projects

    • Women’s Safety: Shelters and centers for victims of rape and violence will offer medical, emotional, and legal support, plus vocational training for economic independence. Our CEO is in Ambovombe, Madagascar, preparing to launch the women’s shelter project.
    • Entrepreneurship: Centers will provide training and support for small businesses, empowering women and improving employment.
    • Technology: A software house and tech campus will deliver IT training, develop AI solutions, and create jobs for women and youth.
    • Sustainability: We promote environmental education, sustainable agriculture, and clean water solutions to combat malnutrition and improve health.

    Together, these efforts build a brighter future for local communities.
