Investing in the next generation of African leaders, professionals, and entrepreneurs through CHANCEN is an opportunity to impact the economic fate of the African region in a sustainable way.
The Future of Work Fund
The Future of Work Fund (FWF) is an innovative blended finance vehicle that combines catalytic equity, impact debt, and stakeholder investments to prove that fair and ethical student financing in sub-Saharan Africa can be sustainable. Using our 25-year-old financial instrument and building on our current success in Rwanda, the fund is set to create a paradigm shift in education to employment across the continent.

Get Involved
The Future of Work Fund is domiciled with the Kigali International Financial Center and has an initial target of 21M USD. We are raising donations to purchase shares in the fund on behalf of the students to ensure their voices remain strong in the governance of the fund. We also continue to pursue grant funding to support research and development of new markets.
