AusCongo Network is a grassroots Australian charity working alongside Congolese communities in Australia and the Democratic Republic of Congo to relieve poverty through community development, social enterprise, and sustainable partnerships.

AusCongo Network Incorporated (ACN) is a grassroots charity registered as a Public Benevolent Institution with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC). We are endorsed by the Australian Taxation Office as a Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR).
We redirect remittances into economically sustainable projects — micro-enterprises, social enterprises, and community initiatives — both here in Australia and in the Democratic Republic of Congo, to relieve poverty and build self-sustaining communities.
To provide opportunities for Congolese people living in poverty to transform their lives through community development, business development, microfinance, partnerships, training, and other activities aimed at building strong and sustainable communities.
To support the empowerment of people in the Democratic Republic of Congo by renewing and restoring local economies, and to support the empowerment amongst Congolese communities in Australia by building skills and capacities.
