About Village Enterprise : Our vision is for an African continent free from extreme poverty. Since 1987, we have been dedicated to eradicating extreme poverty in rural Africa by harnessing the power of entrepreneurship. As a community-based, locally-led organization, our poverty graduation program empowers vulnerable women, refugees, and youth with the skills and resources needed to establish climate-smart businesses and savings groups, breaking the cycle of extreme poverty.

Our program fosters self-reliance, financial inclusion, and gender equity, while also enhancing physical and mental well-being, supporting conservation efforts, building resilience to climate change and global challenges, and securing a brighter future for generations to come.

Village Enterprise was awarded the highest “Top Nonprofit” rating from Great Nonprofits based on reviews from our donors, volunteers, and interns and a four star rating from Glassdoor.
