About Us

The Foundation supports Ashesi’s mission to educate ethical, entrepreneurial leaders that will help build a flourishing Africa. We do this by raising funds, supporting efforts to expand Ashesi’s global network, and helping connect volunteers with the university. The Boards of the Foundation and the University collaborate to shape our work and ensure mission alignment.
