We are always looking for new ideas and new talent to make Africa a better place for children, youth and women. You can be a part of helping us find and support the very best social entrepreneurs by developing an innovation competition geared towards creating social impact in areas that are of particular interest to you.
Innovation competition partners select one or more of the six fields in which they want to invest: health & development, education, expression & participation, economic participation, child protection and social inclusion. Once the field of investment and the country for the challenge have been selected, Reach for Change and its innovation competition partner prepare and launch the campaign together to find the winning Change Leader who will be supported through our Incubator program and a fixed amount of funding to help their idea take off!
What you give
Innovation competition partners generally provide funding and resources to roll out innovation competitions, including grants for the winning social entrepreneurs and funding for their participation in our Incubator program. Each partnership has a unique agreement to ensure that the competition aligns with your budget, goals and strategies.
