Constituency for Africa Inc CFA

Hey, it's Chiney Ogwumike. I am a Nigerian-American WNBA athlete and ESPN broadcaster. The crisis in Ukraine is absolutely horrifying and heartbreaking. Thousands of Africans, particularly students, live and study in Ukraine and are facing unbelievable challenges to survive and make their way safely home. They need our help.

We are creating this GoFundMe account to directly support Africans fleeing Ukraine.

This fund will benefit Africans in the diaspora that are fleeing Ukraine without money, medication, food, clothing and basic necessities to survive. It will also help support the people on the ground who are providing shelter during this time.

These funds will be sent through the Constituency for Africa Inc (CFA). This organization is working directly with groups across Europe to assist these African students and families in need. The mission of CFA is to build a base of support for Africa in the United States and throughout the African Diaspora. CFA is a 25-years old Washington, D.C.-based network of organizations, groups, and individuals committed to the progress and empowerment of Africa and African people worldwide.

Thank you,
