for Pan-African and Feminist Philanthropies Initiative
TrustAfrica is a pan-African philanthropic organization that seeks to strengthen initiatives that address the most difficult challenges confronting the continent and is focused on Democratic Governance, Equitable Development, and African Philanthropy. In partnership with Urgent Action Fund Africa, TrustAfrica will use this grant to facilitate the building of an ecosystem of pan-African and feminist philanthropies grounded in the principles of mutuality, self-determination, solidarity, and African agency. This grant will allow the partners to co-create and support shared infrastructure and mechanisms that serve, connect, and strengthen underrepresented constituencies and movements — by moving money and other resources — in their goal of advancing justice.
