About PROJECT AK-47

We exist to RESCUE child soldiers from lives of violence, RESTORE their identities, and RESHAPE regions of conflict. Using economic initiatives, education programs and safe houses, we love and educate these children, equipping them with tools to navigate hardships and restore peace for their generation. Child soldiering is human slavery sanitized from the eye of history. Kids hidden away in jungles and guarded by guns. Many unbelievably young. They are nameless and faceless armies. Child soldiers are fighters under the age of 18 used to serve in government forces, rebel opposition groups and guerrilla armies. They are trained to kill. Small bodies that are not meant to be operating weapons are now mastering the usage of assault rifles (often the AK-47), machetes and rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs) on the front lines. They are also used as human shields and minesweepers, and are sent out to investigate opponent locations during battle.
