Our unwavering mission: restoring dignity, igniting hope
At Augustin Kimpa Fondation, we are driven by a singular purpose: to protect human dignity and restore hope for vulnerable populations affected by conflict in the DR Congo. This is not just our work; it is our commitment. Join us as we strive to create lasting change and a brighter future. We're glad you're here to be a part of our story.
Who we stand with
We are dedicated to supporting vulnerable individuals and communities across the Democratic Republic of the Congo, those directly affected by war, armed conflict, and forced displacement. Our focus includes internally displaced persons, women and children, youth, survivors of violence, and families in remote, conflict-affected areas. These communities face immense challenges: loss of homes and livelihoods, limited access to essential healthcare and education, food insecurity, profound trauma, and ongoing insecurity. Many endure life without basic services, protection, or the opportunity to rebuild. The prolonged conflict has weakened local systems, leaving communities exposed to poverty, violence, and humanitarian crises. Our vital work responds to these urgent humanitarian needs while fostering long-term recovery, resilience, and dignity, helping communities to heal, rebuild, and move towards a more stable and hopeful future.
Our actions, our values
Augustin Kimpa Fondation supports vulnerable communities in the Democratic Republic of the Congo through a blend of humanitarian assistance and long-term development initiatives. We provide emergency relief—such as food support, basic household items, and access to essential healthcare—responding to urgent needs caused by war and displacement. We invest in education, child protection, and psychosocial support to help children and families recover from conflict-induced trauma. Through community-based programmes, we promote livelihoods, skills training, and income-generating activities, helping families regain self-reliance and stability. Our work is conducted in close partnership with local leaders and community members, ensuring relevance, dignity, and sustainability. Our core values—human dignity, solidarity, compassion, integrity & transparency, community empowerment, and hope & resilience—guide every action, affirming our commitment to respect, empathy, and accountability as we support communities in rebuilding their lives.
A future free from conflict
We envision a future where communities across the Democratic Republic of the Congo can live in peace, safety, and dignity, liberated from the devastating effects of war and chronic poverty. A future where children access quality education, families meet their basic needs, and individuals affected by conflict are supported to heal, rebuild, thrive. Our mission seeks to help create a world where vulnerable populations are defined not by crisis, but by resilience and opportunity. We believe in a society where communities are empowered to shape their own development, human rights are respected, and solidarity replaces violence. Through our work, we aim to contribute to lasting stability, social justice, and hope for generations to come.
Augustin Kimpa Fondation is committed to making a tangible difference in the lives of those affected by conflict in the DR Congo. Your support helps us achieve this vital mission.
