Nearly 400 million people (and growing) live in extreme poverty in rural Africa.
We're changing that with a model that celebrates village democracy, direct giving, and data analysis. Small transfers of cash make a big difference
when they target public goods chosen by underserved villages. Read about us in The New York Times.

Bakili Village votes to build a nursery school to improve early childhood education.
#democracy
Alice, a teacher in New York City, donates to Bakili's project.
#direct
The completed school increases nursery enrollment in Bakili by 60%.
