Vision: To be seen as a model non-profit organization that supports African community development, helping these communities to be self-sustaining through the good use of their resources. OUR VALUES: Commitment/Passion/Empathy/Service Explanation. Entre Tribus was founded by a group of Chilean professionals who lived a common experience: being volunteers in Africa, contributing and helping with all their knowledge in different communities. Their experiences were the foundation of the dream of creating Entre Tribus, a non-profit organization that brings together professionals with experience in different areas (doctors, dentist, nutritionists, teachers, etc.), in order to contribute in a multidisciplinary way to the development of the African communities they want to empower. That is why Entre Tribus seeks to improve the quality-of-life in Africa according to the needs of each one, focusing mainly on health, food, and education problems. At the same time, Entre Tribus seeks to promote cultural exchange between Chile and the different African communities, so that both learning and teaching are reciprocal. We send volunteers from Latin America to Africa for a year, allowing volunteers and the communities themselves to learn from the different cultures and what each one has to contribute. Trying to bring this life-changing experience to more people. Hence, Entre Tribus seeks to be seen as a model organization that supports African community development, allowing them to, eventually, be self-sustaining through the proper use of their resources but at the same time becoming a model in integration and cultural exchange, especially in a globalized world like the one we live in today.

Heya Masr uniquely targets girls at an early age since we rely on UN studies (1) that indicate that behavioral changes occur at the early stages of development. This approach helps us equip women with mechanisms to rise above the negative impacts of extreme deprivation, abuse, and other adversities in their most formative years of development. We seek a proactive impact on women during adolescence to become stronger, more confident, and independent, thereby positively influencing future generations in Egypt.
