The mission of the Morning Star Center (MSCAFRICA) is to bring hope and development to the Heart of Africa. MSCAFRICA is a nonpartisan, nonprofit institution devoted expressly to providing social improvement services to underprivileged and impoverished communities. It is our mission to begin with those in the most need. Social Progress requires intervention in several different areas of life, therefore the Morning Star Center will provide many different yet related services to invigorate and inspire social progress. A summary of the different services is provided below. Education: Social progress depends heavily on the development of knowledge and intelligence.  Morning Star Center will provide education through classroom training for all levels of learners: children, adolescents, and adults. A primary goal of the Center's education services is to educate the impoverished children of Africa who, without the Center's services, would be left unable to read, write, or advance in society. The education at the Center will be theoretically based yet practically oriented integrating the latest in business and technology. Healthcare: Social Progress is impossible when a population is faced with debilitating and devastating diseases. A large degree of the health care problem in Africa emanates from simple deficiencies. Morning Star Center will provide basic vaccinations, medications, and information to prevent and treat widespread yet curable diseases. Technology Center: Social Progress is heavily reliant on technology. Morning Star Center will provide not only technical education to students but also serve as a distribution and information center for technological advancement with the community. Local businesses and families will be encouraged to use a technology provided by Morning Star Center as well as obtain lessons about improving production and lifestyle improvement through technology. MSCAFRICA strives to serve African communities by providing education, healthcare, technological, and other social services to everybody, especially the poor. All people are at birth equal and when provided the minimal foundations of education, healthcare, technology, and other services all people are capable of improving their quality of life.
