.POA’s Strategic Plan, 1/1/50-25, is inspired by the purpose of generating social and economic prosperity for the People of Africa. The underlying mission is to orchestrate the development of at least 1 million young people through the various POA platforms; as well as reducing POA’s environmental footprint by 50% by the end of financial year 2025. One of the channels that has been identified to finance this ambitious strategy is a 500km fundraising walk dubbed the ‘500-Million-Stories’ (5MS) Campaign.
'500 Million Stories' latches on the fact that each of the approximately 500 Million young people in Africa has a story. And by providing each one of them the necessary infrastructure and a healthy dose of inspiration, they can shape their stories by fully activating their talents.
500-Million-Stories beats the drums for the daring dreams of every youth to come alive. It is a frenzied war cry for every individual, regardless of station in life, to show up for Africa's Youth. Because if we collectively meaningfully nurture, support and celebrate our youth, Africa's Prosperity will be restored.
All proceeds will go towards the 5MS Campaign.
