About us

By providing different types of financing to non-governmental organisations and social enterprises, we aim to:

• Fund transformational, efficient, sustainable, scalable and replicable investments to support and strengthen government, private sector and community systems to provide sustainable health, water, sanitation and hygiene, education and employment opportunities.
