In a bid to support “chronically under-funded African-led organizations,” the new African Visionary Fund — established only last year — has committed to providing over $1 million in flexible funding to six organizations.
The organizations, which work across a variety of key sectors such as education, health, human rights, and livelihoods, will receive general operating support over a period of three years.
Who’s getting money: The six organizations — Barefoot Law, Dandelion Africa, Rays of Hope, SaCoDé, Shule Direct, and Wezesha Impact — are geographically diverse with broad representation across sectors. They are all “African-led and Africa-based, and demonstrate good organizational governance, sound financial management and organizational resilience,” according to AVFund.
