Under its Engage! Initiative, EACEF has launched a chapter network that reaches colleges and high schools across America. Each chapter functions dually as an awareness and fundraising source for our partner schools in East Africa and as a way to get young people involved in social action. We want to inspire young people to become social activists – to fight for change for people all over the world.
Many youth have the ability to affect such change using their special talents; oftentimes they just don't have the know-how or the resources. By joining an EACEF chapter, students will have access to both step-by-step guidelines and the personal support of the National EACEF organization (comprised of the original founders and additional supporters who have graduated from under the EACEF model).
EACEF was founded by high school students at The Westminster Schools in Atlanta, GA. Now that the founders have graduated, EACEF at Westminster acts as a flagship chapter, acting in a pivotal role as a central resource center and successful philanthropic model for other students across the nation. Learn more about the Westminster Chapter.
If there's already a chapter of EACEF on your campus, you can look below to find your school and contact its leaders about joining opportunities. For schools where we don't have Chapters, students can contact Alexis Mitchell to found a Chapter on their campus. Please consult our additional resources: Start a Chapter
For more information about chapters, please contact Alexis Mitchell, our VP for Community Relations, at amitchell@eacef.org.
