About Us
A large portion of our foundation's total spend goes toward programmes that directly benefit Africa.
We focus on agriculture, economic empowerment for women, and inclusive finance to improve access for women and smallholder farmers.
The foundation's investment in Revital, based in Kenya, has transformed local supply chains by shortening lead times and reducing reliance on imports.
South Africa now serves as the sub-regional office for Southern Africa, Senegal for West and Central Africa, and Nairobi for East Africa.
