"Through this partnership we get to work closely with social entrepreneurs who are dedicated to changing the outlook for vulnerable children. It is an opportunity for us not only to support them in their entrepreneurial journey and help accelerate their impact, but also to be inspired and to learn from them."
Georgi Ganev
CEO of Kinnevik AB - our founding partner
"Without this funding, it would have been impossible to start the program in the public schools and gain the traction we need."

"At the ella fund we are firm believers that partnerships are a source of long term value creation. When likeminded organizations come together to increase funding firepower but especially to take advantage of complementary skill sets, amazing things happen. A great example is the Innovating for Mothers competition conducted in partnership with Mothers at Risk and Reach for Change in Senegal. It was our first bespoke social entrepreneurship competition, leveraging Mothers at Risk’s deep knowledge of maternal health issues, the ella fund’s venture philanthropy mind-set and Reach for Change’s expertise in identifying and nurturing promising social entrepreneurs."
Erin Gainer
Founder of the ella fund
The world is full of problems. It’s also full of remarkable people who have brilliant solutions to these problems. By unleashing the power of social entrepreneurship, we can accelerate the speed of reaching a world where all children reach their full potential. But we need to work together to make it happen. We need to partner up for Change.
We have impacted lives of children in 18 countries of the world since 2010.
