Our Impact
In just three years, we've partnered with esteemed organizations like Mastercard Foundation, GIZ, Access Bank, and UNDP. As a nonprofit, we connect donors with initiatives that empower diverse grantees and organizations to drive systemic change, effective philanthropy and maximize impact.
Why Join Us?
Out of over 260,000 global grantmakers, less than 1% are based in Africa, and less than 1% of global grant dollars are allocated to the continent (Harvard University - Global Philanthropy Report). This disparity underscores the historic and systemic harm that needs urgent redress.
