Programs

What we run

Four programme areas, each with its own focus, approach and way to support the work.

Humanitarian Aid & Wellbeing

Relief that arrives directly, and care that stays after it.

We deliver food, water and essential supplies straight to families facing hardship, and pair every relief effort with mental health and psychosocial support so recovery covers the whole person.

Education & Training

Free, practical skills with a clear path to real work.

Our training runs through Koinos, the Foundation's learning platform. Learners follow a simple pathway: learn in a cohort, build at a hackathon, grow a venture in the studio, then join a network of builders and employers.

Work & Opportunities

From prototype to registered, earning business.

Built on years of work with innovation hubs across Africa, this programme takes young teams beyond the hackathon and into real businesses and jobs.
