The beginning of 2022 has represented an inflection point for our organization after a breakthrough year in 2021 that saw unparalleled growth and the expansion of BOMA’s poverty graduation approach to new regions and populations. Team BOMA has lifted upwards of 361,000 women, youth, and refugees in the Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASALs) of Africa out of extreme poverty to date — and we are striving to reach 3 million people by 2027.
