An Alliance for Well-Being

Who we  are and what we do

We are friends and partners to the Aja people of Benin, and we work together for the well-being of their families and communities. We trust them. We believe that they know what’s good for them and what they need. We listen to them about what they need and give advice when asked. We don’t force outside or foreign ideas onto them. In short, we work together for the greater good of Benin and its people.

We provide the support the people of the Couffo need and the mentoring they want, when it’s appropriate, so that families and their communities can provide for the things they know are important for improving their lives. The people of the Couffo are proud and resilient, and if The Collaborative can give them the right support, there’s nothing they can’t achieve.
