Africa Fundraising Incubator

If you are an NGO, community-based organization, or social enterprise seeking to expand your impact and strengthen your fundraising, this incubator was built specifically for you. The program was formerly known as the Africa Impact Fundraising Grant.

We have created a short video explaining what the AFI is, who is eligible, and how to apply.

The AFI is a multi-stage capacity-building program designed by the New Africa Fund (NAF) to equip African organizations with the practical skills, resources, and institutional support needed to build sustainable funding pipelines, broaden their reach, and deepen their impact.

The program consists of the following:

Online Training: Up to 150 selected organizations will receive specialized training in the foundational skills needed to run successful small-donor fundraising campaigns.

30-Day Challenge Month: Participants will put their new skills into practice by launching live fundraising campaigns, with the opportunity to receive up to $5,000 in matching funds from the New Africa Fund.

Fiscal Sponsorship: To reduce administrative barriers, all participating organizations will receive 12 months of free fiscal sponsorship.

In Person Training in Kigali, Rwanda: The 20 top-performing organizations will be invited to an all-expenses-paid, week-long, in-person boot camp focused on strengthening their fundraising and leadership skills.

Applications may be submitted in English or French.
