  Our Mission  
  The Ashby Foundation is a non-profit charitable organization devoted to providing humanitarian assistance where it is most needed.  All of the Ashby Foundation efforts are currently focused in island nation of Cape Verde, West Africa.  These efforts are centered on creating a  long-term impact on individual lives through educational assistance and employment related training.  We believe in the concept of teaching a man to fish instead of giving him a fish.  
     
  Who We Are  
  The Ashby Foundation was started in 2002 by the descendants of Hannah Cropper Ashby and Eda Ashby Bingham to honor their legacy of selfless service and compassionate care.  The Foundation is funded by their descendants as well as from generous contributions by other individuals that believe in blessing the lives of others.  
     
  Locations  
 

 

The Ashby Foundation operates offices in Praia, Mindelo and Sao Filipe.  Assistance is provided to individuals on the islands of Sao Tiago, Fogo, Brava, Sao Vicente, Santo Antao & Sal
