Each region of the continent is unique, with varying landscapes, distinct cultures, and more. However, amidst this rich diversity, Africa continues to face a variety of challenges related to poverty and economic inequality.

We know that local leaders are the most knowledgeable and best equipped to address these challenges.  Together with our partners, we provide entrepreneurs and farmers with training, mentoring, access to capital, and advocacy tools.
