Our Mission

Harvard College Alliance for Africa (HCAA) aims to make educational opportunities and vocational training available to members of Africa's impoverished communities, especially vulnerable children, women, and those whose lives have been affected by HIV/AIDS. HCAA's African program participants benefit from an increased sense of self-reliance and the ability to ensure themselves and their children an improved quality of life.

Quick Facts

HCAA is an undergraduate student organization at Harvard College in Cambridge, MA where we were accepted as an official undergraduate group in Fall 2007.
