We believe that education is key to conquering many of the world’s greatest challenges. We believe that everyone should have equal access to educational opportunities to break the cycle of poverty. We believe that a combination of smart philanthropy and investment can galvanize solutions to make that future a reality.
We give strategically. For us this means, among other things, taking a rigorous approach to due diligence to understand the existing landscape in the work we support. We view our philanthropic dollars as catalytic capital and seek opportunities that will enable growth and leverage additional funding for the future scalability, replication and sustainability of every program we support.
Our keystone initiative is the IDP Rising Schools Program, a groundbreaking education finance and training initiative created to empower existing low-fee private schools across Ghana. The program was developed as an innovative and sustainable model for improving educational infrastructure in private schools serving low-income families and has since demonstrated that with adequate training, these school owners can improve their management and efficiently use their newly found loans to sustain and improve their institutions.
