CATALYZING PROSPERITY THROUGH ENTREPRENEURSHIP
Who We Are
“Synergy Foundation” is registered under the law for “Non-profit Organizations” and acquired 501(c) (3) status in February 2020. The foundation is owned and operated by a team of experienced personnel. We are a team that consists of individuals from different backgrounds with one common goal in mind. We plan to deliver exceptional service that retains and maintains a growing customer base in the African region charity industry. We expect to serve the youth and female entrepreneurs in Ethiopia and the African region in creating successful businesses, regardless of their race, color, religion, or gender.
Addressing the financing access challenge is the primary objective of Synergy Foundation, a U.S.-based charitable organization. We are also dedicated to increasing social awareness and perception of entrepreneurship to motivate especially the youth and women to be creative, innovative, and self-employed in Ethiopia and within Africa at large to combat the rampant unemployment and underemployment in this region. Hence our foundation’s vision is to catalyze prosperity through increasing awareness of entrepreneurship and providing financing for promising start-up businesses.
