About
Recognized as a Time Magazine and Gates Foundation “Hero of Global Health,” CFK Africa empowers youth and fights extreme poverty in African informal settlements through participatory research, primary healthcare, and youth development. Founded in 2001 as Carolina for Kibera by a Kenyan youth leader, a nurse, and an NROTC midshipman at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, CFK Africa's approach to participatory community development is rooted in the conviction that sustainable impact and solutions to poverty are only possible when the communities most affected by it are the real change-makers.
