 * OK, I have moved the article to User:Ileap4change/LEAP Africa, a subpage of your userspace, so that you can improve it without immediate threat of deletion. You ought to read the guidance at the top of the page about writing articles, and WP:NOBLECAUSE has some good points too.  You will need to find good sources with good coverage of this group to ensure that the article is one that has a place here.  When you think you've got the article ready to go, I suggest you ask at the WP:Help Desk for someone to take a look and if they think it's ready, they can move it back into the main encyclopedia for you.
