About Us

Grameen Foundation recognizes the antiquated systems of power that hold women back and we refuse to accept it as the norm.

We are breaking down barriers and reshaping mindsets, not just for today, but for generations to come.

Together, we are creating a world where poverty is not a life sentence, but one chapter in a story of resilience and triumph.

By enabling new systems of support, we ensure women can access their full potential and build resilience against climate change, financial insecurity, and harmful gender archetypes.

Our Approach to Climate Change  

Entrepreneurs icon

Entrepreneurs

We partner with women entrepreneurs who lack startup funds or struggle to secure loans and lack access to markets and business training. We work with them to increase access, profitability, and agency throughout their entrepreneurial journey.

Farmers

Most working women in low-income communities are in agriculture. We connect them to markets and extension services, so they can increase profits and become resilient in the face of climate change threats.

The Next Generation

A world without poverty and hunger depends on the next generation of women being financially included. We build on-ramps to formal financial and market systems so young women can break the cycle of poverty.
