The Foundation believes that working with Ivanka Trump’s Women’s Initiative, We-Fi and 2XAfrica, will provide the right support to women-owned businesses in Africa.

Ivanka Trump Initiative: The daughter of the American President, Ivanka is championing a White House Initiative, to empower women around the developing world economically. This initiative will see the provision of $27 million in grants for projects in about 22 countries.

Participation for all: The Tony Elumelu Foundation, which was established in 2010, has supported more than 7000 entrepreneurs in Africa in the last 5 years and aims to support more soon.

The Founder, Tony Elumelu was recognized as one of “Africa’s 20 Most Powerful People” in 2012 by Forbes magazine.

Collaborating with Ivanka Trump’s Initiative is not the only step the Foundation is taking to bring more progress to African youths.

According to an earlier report by Nairametrics, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) is partnering with the Foundation to provide entrepreneurship support for youths in the Sahel region of Africa.

According to the UNDP, its mission is to support additional 100,000 entrepreneurs from the region, which includes Northern Nigeria, Niger, Chad, Cameroun, Mauritania, Mali, and Burkina Faso.
