Les Enfants Baobab has not actively operated for several years, and no fundraising campaigns have been conducted during that time. The organization was a small volunteer effort founded to support vulnerable children in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo, and it never fully developed as intended, particularly following COVID-19 and the loss of a key board member to cancer in early 2023.

 

While active, the organization helped provide housing and educational support for approximately 15 vulnerable children in Kinshasa, where many children live on the streets. We are grateful to everyone who supported those efforts and thankful that other organizations continue this important work today.

 

Administrative filings related to the nonprofit are being resolved.

 

Q: Was anyone accused of personally profiting from the nonprofit?

 

A: No. The issue involves administrative nonprofit filings for an inactive volunteer organization.

 

Q: Is the organization currently operating or fundraising?

 

A: No. The organization has been inactive for several years and is not conducting fundraising activity.

 

Q: Why is this being discussed during the campaign?

 

A: Outside political groups are attempting to turn an administrative issue involving a long-inactive volunteer nonprofit into a political attack during a competitive Assembly race.
