Mission Statement
Our vision is to create and support opportunities to equip young people within the Democratic Republic of Congo to give birth to their true leadership potential.
About This Cause
Revive Congo has been set up to ensure the advancement of education for young people in the UK and Democratic Republic of Congo. Though providing informal educational measures to develop the capability and capacities of their skill to independently and responsibly participate in society and to increase their employment prospects. Our programmes intend to provide informal education on the history of the Democratic Republic of Congo. In addition to this, our summer youth programme provides an opportunity for young people to develop their project management skills, communication skills and financial management, as well as receive advice on careers, volunteering and academic opportunities. This programme has contributed to developing the skills and capabilities of young people to independently participate in society in the longer term. We also promote the advancement of education for young people in the Democratic Republic of Congo through producing e-learning material to provide informal education on leadership and entrepreneurship skills. This learning resource seeks to develop the capability and capacities of their skill to independently and responsibly participate in society and to increase their employment prospects. We also provide access to primary education for children in the DRC by paying for school fees, as well as supporting our partner Mission Marie orphanage based in Kinshasa with developing an adequate learning environment for children living in poverty, particularly those in orphanages through providing equipment necessary to aid their learning or basic needs. In recent years we have also participated in immensely improving WASH at the orphanage through installing a water tank to provide clean sustainable water beds and removing their cement beds and replacing them with mattresses and bunk beds. Our aim is to continue to make such improvements as well as working towards creating a playful environment for the children in helping them to thrive. Our work has shown us that this approach is effective and transformational. We are seeking to ensure that our programme is accessible to children in the UK and in the DRC. Currently, we are aware of initiatives proposed which support the development of young people, however there are few services run by those of similar demographics to that of Revive Congo.
