What's with our name?

So glad you asked.

We chose our name to reflect our unique approach.

While venture capitalists prioritize businesses with high financial returns, we invest in local African organizations creating jobs while solving social issues. We affectionately call them 'Adventures.'

"Adventure"

verb

[add-venture]
An organization that combines social good with business acumen.

Why Jobs?

Because a good job is what people want most.

Handouts help today, but a good job will change your life (and your children's' lives).

The more we teach people to fish, the faster we will end extreme poverty.

What are the
"Core Four?"

We focus on creating jobs that target the core four issues affecting people living in extreme poverty: Climate, Health, Hunger and Water.

By targeting these four issues, your giving strategically reduces extreme poverty while saves lives.

What does results-focused mean?

Our primary focus is results.

For example, some might focus their attention on reporting how many water wells they have drilled (an "activity"). We are focused on how many people have clean water every day (the "result").

Drilling a well is easy. Ensuring people are employed and trained to run it is what keeps water flowing every day.
