Universal Drum displays and sells unique African products, instruments, music, and art in the United States. We are a family-owned small-business based in Massachusetts that works with select artists from Mali, Senegal and Benin. We sell our products locally and through our website (www.universaldrum.net). Drawing from our work experience in international development, Universal Drum provides short-term consultancies to NGOs and institutions who wish to invest in and benefit from development in Africa and Latin America. We come to Universal Drum with more than 10 years of development in practice with leading international groups including World Education, Pathfinder and JSI. We have competitive skills in fundraising, program management, institutional development, strategic planning, compliance with financial regulations (USAID for example), capacity-building and workshop facilitation.
