Our History
Founded in 2007 to Provide Economic Empowerment Opportunities
The Global Opportunity Fund (GO Fund) was founded in 2007 with a mission to provide economic empowerment programs to women in Africa. Since its inception, the GO Fund has supported grassroots initiatives that create sustainable opportunities and improve the quality of life in underserved communities. Through partnerships and community-led efforts, the GO Fund has impacted over thousands of women and families across Ghana and Kenya—providing access to small business training, educational resources, and income-generating opportunities.
We are a non-profit organization that promotes the empowerment and enrichment of the lives of women and children in Africa via educational, social support and entrepreneurial projects.
