Develop Africa Inc. is a small- to mid-sized nonprofit headquartered in Johnson City, Tennessee, operating as a 501(c)(3) organization with a focus on sustainable development in Africa. Its programs address education and basic needs, including school supplies and scholarships, solar lighting, mosquito nets, and computer or vocational training, in addition to microfinance loans, orphan care, and disaster relief. By strengthening individuals and households, the organization seeks to enable self-sufficiency and contribute to broader community and national progress. Guided by training, scholarships, investment, and partnerships, Develop Africa aims to advance transformational education, resource development, and strategic empowerment for African communities. In July 2025 it partnered with the Freetown City Council in Sierra Leone to support the Year of the Pencil initiative, distributing 100,000 pencils, 10,000 pouches, and 10,000 sharpeners to 10,000 pupils across 20 primary schools. These activities illustrate the organization's approach to combining educational support with social services to foster long-term self-reliance.
