Leaders are highly respected people in their local societies and exist as a form of trust layers helping to filter and amplify information, and bringing life-changing services to Sub-Saharan African communities.
By-invitation only network of community leaders who efficiently coordinate responses across communities and are connected with scores of NGOs to receive the latest support and advice to serve their constituents.
COMMUNITY MOBILIZATION
IS KEY
With an average 32/100 score in the corruption perception index authorities in Sub-Saharan Africa are the least trusted on the planet.
LOWEST SCORING REGION :
SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA
Local organizations, community and faith-based leaders are the focal points of collective action in the region. Policies are at high-risk of failure without their endorsement.
PROOF OF IMPACT
“RELAY helped me save the lives of my people with its free SMS tool. Ebola virus kills and everyone should tell, at least, another person about its danger and how to protect their own family. I got several calls, even from people beyond my own community, to ask for clarification on the prevention measures I wrote about."

PROOF OF IMPACT
“One of the unspoken challenges of aid agencies is to reach our constituents, especially in remote areas where communities can be very far from one another. We have programs ready to support them, but we have limited resources to spread the word. Relay helps us to communicate faster and on-target. Within 2 days, by using Relay, our programs were already shared widely, and we received double the students we hoped for that came and applied. The impact is real!”
