Overview

  • Up through 2014, Yunus Social Business - Global Initiatives (YSB) has supported and financed 25 social businesses across Albania, Brazil, Colombia, Haiti, India, Tunisia and Uganda. Our local country teams have supported over 300 entrepreneurs by sourcing, mentoring and coaching them in our accelerator programs to help them grow their social businesses. We also provided financing to our most promising social businesses, and continued to provide post-investment support to the social businesses already in our portfolio.

    This would not have been possible without your support and we thank you for it!

    Here's how you can help us help our entrepreneurs in 2015:
