The impact of the recent aid cuts continues to reverberate across the continent, exacerbating the already delicate situation of declining resources against rising need and a growing young population.

How can you amplify impact with the stretched philanthropic resources at our disposal? Catalytic Capital (CC) is a powerful tool to crowd-in private capital into social investment areas that traditional financing often overlooks, from early-stage social enterprises to transformative larger solutions like Social Impact Bonds.
