The mission of the USC Africa Health Initiative is multi fold:

  • To raise funds to finance the building of a bridge in the town of Sikoro, which would provide residents with access to healthcare, education and commerce during the 4-month long rainy season.
  • To travel to Sikoro and create a sustainable community garden, which would provide residents with a source of both nutrition and income generation.
  • To foster cross-cultural ties and understanding.
