Action Sets Us Apart
The projects we support develop win-win entrepreneurial partnerships between the underprivileged and the wealthy. These collaborations help tackle inequality's economic and social dimension as they do not only generate income but develop skills and foster relationships and opportunities.
We seek courageous ideas and provide the resources for pioneering initiatives that else would fail to be attempted. If we succeed, our projects can become models for a town, a country or even a whole industry.
