Africa Bridgeworks Fund

The bridge between a good organisation and a funder who cannot reach it

Grants small enough to matter to the organisations receiving them, made possible because the due diligence is already done.

The investment approach

We lead with trust and invest with conviction

  • Founders working together at a workshop

    Grants of $5,000 to $50,000

    Catalytic grants that cover the internal systems, compliance and technology changemakers need to reach their next stage of growth.

  • Participants at a partner hub event

    Academy graduates only

    We fund only Africa Impact Academy alumni, because we have spent ten months getting to know them and built trust.

  • Founders in discussion at a partner hub

    Debt financing starting in Kenya

    We are running a debt financing pilot, starting in Kenya, through a guarantee facility in 2027.
