83% of public donations—including gifts from individuals, corporate partners, and foundations—directly funded our programs.
How is that possible? A committed group of visionary donors—including our board and advisors—contributed $157K to cover our growth-related expenses like staff, marketing, and infrastructure.That means your gift goes straight to the heart of the work: empowering local entrepreneurs to create change.
From selling clean cookstoves to repairing wells and delivering lifesaving healthcare, your support helps people lift themselves, and their families, out of poverty.
