 * 5. || [[image:photo_palm01.jpg width="248" height="181"]] || http://www.eds-lab.jp/images/photo_palm01.jpg || The Palm Campaign is a campaign designed to raise twenty million dollars solely on palm trees. The goal of the Palm Campaign is to raise 20 million dollars by 2010, which will allow All For Africa to plant one million palm trees on about 17,000 acres of land in Africa. ||
 * 6. || [[image:palm-trees.jpg width="219" height="164"]] || http://www.candbsupplies.ca/palm-trees.jpg || Once mature the trees will be able to produce 300,000 barrels of crude palm oil annually for the next 30 years. ||
 * 7. || [[image:palm-trees-1.jpg width="350" height="231"]] || http://www.harrisonphoto.co.uk/images/vegas/palm-trees.jpg || At the same time it will also absorb 28,000,000 pounds of CO2 each year. Palm oil can be used for many food and non-food products but mainly it is consumed as an edible vegetable oil. At current price amounts these trees will create more than 750 million for funding of organizations already working in Africa. ||
 * 8. || [[image:ngopa720ml.jpg width="402" height="537"]] || http://www.foodstandards.gov.uk/multimedia/bigimages/ngopa720ml.jpg || These one million trees will be divided up into 700 separate oil trusts, each trust consisting of 1,500 trees on 25 acres of land. The original cost to establish a trust is $30,000, or $20 per palm tree. This includes the cost of seeds, fertilizer, and the knowledge necessary to plant, row and maintain and harvest the palm oil. ||
 * 9. || [[image:palm_oil.jpg width="234" height="313"]] || http://www.ibmalaysia.com/image/commodities/palm%20oil.jpg || Each of these “trusts” will generate the expected annual revenues of $35,000 over a period of 30 years. ||
 * || [[image:school_front.jpg width="380" height="284"]] || http://www.gilliananderson.ws/news/images/school_front.jpg || This revenue, in turn, will give the funding for the beneficiary awarded that trust – which might be a school, a health facility, a vocational training center or other community-based initiatives working across the continent. This on-going stream of revenue will allow organizations to concentrate on expansion and new efforts while maintaining their day-to-day operations. ||

All for Africa is a non-profit organization that is based in New York. It does charity work in many different countries in Africa.

All for Africa has three main founding partners, Sithe Global, Global Alumina, and Seacom. These three partners help to make All for Africa a good charity organization and they supply All for Africa with the tools that they need to help other countries in need in Africa. These organizations are well known in Africa and they are highly respected.

All for Africa has one big project that they are currently working on right now. This project is called the Palm Campaign. The Palm Campaign's goal is to raise 20 million dollars which will allow All for Africa to plant 1 million oil palm trees in select places in Africa. These 1 million palm trees will produce 300,000 barrels of crude palm oil annually for the next 30 years, while at the same time absorbing 28,000,000 pounds of CO2 each year. This will really help the revenue for certain beneficiaries to industrialize the important places in Africa and simultaneously clean up the environment. All for Africa is also doing hard work in Malawi to give the country more fresh drinking water. All for Africa believes that having good, clean drinking water is a crucial point to being sustainable. These are the key projects of a great organization.

This is a video that is describing how our organization works. [|All for Africa]

Malawi This country, formerly known as Nyasaland, is a landlocked county. Landlocked means that is bordered by only land. Unlike Georgia which has a SPcost, Malawi is surrounded by three countries. These countries are Zambia, Tanzania, and Mozambique. Malawi is separated from Tanzania and Mozambique by Lake Malawi, which is the third largest lake in Africa and the ninth largest lake in the world. Malawi was first settled during the 10th century and remained under native rule until 1891 when the British started to colonize it. Malawi stayed under British rule until 1964. Malawi was then ruled by President Hastings Banda for 30 years until he was ousted from power in 1994. Malawi now has a democratic, multi-partied government. Now, Malawi is one of the least devoloped SPcountries and most SPdensly populated. The economy depends mainly on agriculture, with a largely rural population. The govermentSP for Malawi depends heavelySP on outside aid to meet devolopmentSP needs. Some of the many problems here in Malawi are health care and education. Since the health care is low, Malawi has a low life experctancySP and a high infant mortality rate. There is also a high rate of HIV/AIDS which is a drain on the workforce and is experctedSP to have a significant impact on the GDP by 2010. Overall, All for Africa is doing a great job in helping out Malawi and is expected to have a great impact in the future.
