About Us
FBMU Global Network
A philanthropic network advancing lasting educational opportunities
FBMU Global Network connects generosity, expertise, and international networks with educational initiatives capable of transforming higher education in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Our identity
Friends of Bernadette Muleka University North America Inc., doing business as FBMU Global Network, is a U.S. nonprofit corporation formed in Connecticut. It mobilizes financial, intellectual, technological, and relational resources to support educational and institutional initiatives, primarily those of Bernadette Muleka University.
More than fundraising
FBMU is a philanthropic platform, a skills network, a vehicle for diaspora engagement, and an institutional development partner. Donors may contribute funds, while mentors, universities, companies, foundations, and volunteers can contribute expertise, equipment, networks, and partnership opportunities.
Our approach
We begin with documented needs, assess mission alignment, approve grants through independent procedures, transfer funds to institutional accounts, and require narrative, financial, and documentary reports. This discipline protects donor trust and supports measurable impact.
