Overview
Connect Humanity serves a unique role in the landscape as a fund able to blend and build complex capital stacks that ensure communities have the type and size of resources they need to achieve digital equity. It supports, catalyzes, and scales holistic solutions providing people with the internet access and means needed to participate fully in a digital society. This grant will help Connect Humanity refine its theory of change and impact frameworks. Once done, the clear articulation of these concepts will be worked into reporting, communications, and management practices in an effort to align their work pooling funding, investing in digital equity, and communicating results to stakeholders ranging from the foundation and corporate partners, to the nontraditional operators in whom we invest.
