The Foundation’s programs address microfinance and youth learning.
How We Work
We are inspired by organizations that are innovative, consistently generating new insights and working to expand access to impactful programs. We primarily work with non-profit and non-governmental organizations. We proactively seek out organizations well-regarded for their leadership, issue expertise, program and financial management, and their track record of success.
