World Connect believes that the power to drive progress exists at the center of every community worldwide. Communities are power centers and we invest with them to drive progress from the inside out.
World Connect invests by giving grants directly to communities to activate ideas that originate within communities. 95% of the community-led development initiatives we invest in succeed because communities lead. 80% of our investments are sustaining at five years post-investment and 15% are showing compounding impact - ripple effects - from our initial investment. 60% of the communities we invest in are receiving their first investment. To date we have impacted 2.4+ million people around the globe with increased access to health, education, economic opportunity, and a safer environment.
Join us in investing with the power inside communities to achieve more equitable and sustainable development momentum.
