About Us
The funding gap for women entrepreneurs in Africa isn’t a pipeline problem. It’s a preparation and access problem.
SheFunds was founded on a simple belief: When women entrepreneurs have the right knowledge, networks, and pathways to capital, they build businesses that transform economies.
We exist because too many capable women are locked out of funding conversations; not because their businesses lack potential, but because they lack the connections, positioning, and investment readiness that capital providers require.
SheFunds changes that equation.
