Global grantee spotlight


We’re proud to support Co-Impact and its work to build just and equitable systems.

By bringing together philanthropists, foundations and private sector partners from around the world, the organization is able to pool funding that supports efforts to drive systems change in the sectors of health, education and economic opportunity in Africa, Asia and Latin America. Together with locally rooted program partners and advisors, Co-Impact forms a global collaborative that advances inclusive systems change, gender equality and women’s leadership through grantmaking and influencing philanthropy.

We are thrilled to have Target Foundation as a longtime funding partner and supporter. Target Foundation’s investments are contributing to a pool of unrestricted and flexible funding to support initiatives working to create more just and inclusive systems and societies. With their most recent investment into our Gender Fund, Target Foundation is demonstrating a deep and exemplary commitment to greater impact and equity by centering gender equality and women’s leadership. We are grateful for our partnership as we work together towards a shared vision of a world where all people can live fulfilling lives.

The Target Foundation’s general operating funding will help support Co-Impact's Gender Fund, which aims to raise and grant US $1 billion and provide predominantly women-led locally-rooted organizations in Africa, Asia and Latin America, with large-scale, long-term and flexible funding — helping to drive systems change to achieve gender-equitable outcomes in health, education and economic opportunity.
