A LITTLE HELP FROM OUR FRIENDS
Thanks to our community of over 5,000+ individual investors, we have raised over £43 million and made £29.5 million in repayments. That’s an amazing amount of people-powered finance, which has provided more than 750,000 people across 14 African countries with access to affordable and life changing solar energy. We have also supported over 8,000 small and micro-sized enterprises.
Known for funding solar business across sub-Saharan Africa, we’re now widening our net. That means we’re offering our support and services to other sustainable businesses in emerging markets. So more great ideas can grow.
