Segal Family Foundation

Segal Family Foundation works across Sub-Saharan Africa and strives to be true partners to our grantees. The Foundation wants to change the power dynamics inherent in traditional philanthropy and prove that a new, more equitable, and responsive approach is not only more fair, but more effective.

Beyond grantmaking, Segal Family Foundation has made a number of debt or equity investments in social enterprises in East Africa. These organizations are often similar to the NGOs we support with grant funding: early-stage entrepreneurs who are creating innovative, scalable models to address Africa’s most pressing social and environmental challenges.
