Sahara
Foundation, the corporate citizenship vehicle for leading energy and
infrastructure conglomerate, Sahara Group, is calling on all social innovators
and entrepreneurs across Africa including Nigeria, Cote d’Ivoire, Ghana, Kenya,
South Sudan, Rwanda, Uganda, Cameroon, Tanzania, and Zambia, for registration
for its Sahara Impact Fund (SIF) program.
The
initiative, a strategic partnership between Sahara Foundation and LEAP Africa aims
to provide support to business ideas and solutions that will increase access
to clean energy and promote sustainable environments.
“The aim of the program is to better
equip the young social entrepreneurs to build sustainable businesses which will
in turn grow their respective economies, contributing to the growth of the
continent at large. We believe that entrepreneurs and game-changing business
owners are the backbone of the African economy and are essential to its growth
and development. Therefore, our goal is to provide the resources and support
they need to succeed while improving lives and livelihood within their
communities and across the Africa continent as a whole”
Ejiro Gray, Director, Sahara Group Foundation, said.
