Avoid fraud: How to protect yourself

FAPEFE (Fondation des Femmes Actives pour la Promotion l’Education de la Femme et de L’Enfant) is deeply concerned about the fraudulent use of our name and logo by unethical individuals who deliberately abuse the trust of FAPEFE supporters worldwide. As a small nonprofit in Africa, we make every attempt to make ourselves and our practices transparent. If you have been contacted by FAPEFE, please read the following information to assure yourself of our legitimacy.

Following are details on how fraud is perpetrated – and how to help protect both FAPEFE and yourself from its potential serious consequences.

Fraudulent offers

We have received reports that imposters have used FAPEFE’s name – and our hard-earned credibility – to solicit members of the public via websites, e-mails and phone calls. If you have been contacted, please do not provide any of your personal information until you have confirmed that you are communicating with someone from the official email or phone number listed below. We are alerting the general public in an effort to ensure that people do not become victims, and are lured into providing their personal contact details.

Please be advised that websites, e-mails and telephone calls offering volunteering or prizes on behalf of FAPEFE are fabricated and fraudulent. Only FAPEFE is authorized to send communications or appeals to the public in FAPEFE’s name.

Volunteering Opportunities with FAPEFE

Never Send Money Via Western Union

For volunteers who make payments or donations in advance of their arrival, this is conducted through a direct bank transfer to our certified school account.
