Spark Foundation opens pathways for young people, particularly women and refugees, to study, work and grow their own businesses in fragile communities. Their success brings stability where it's needed most.

Our 30 years of experience has allowed us to develop a cross-sector approach that opens up pathways to employment for potential entrepreneurs.

By uniting the private sector, local government and other key partners, we build enabling environments that allow young people to start and scale up their own businesses. Their success boosts local economies and rebuilds communities.

All our programmes are founded on close collaboration with local partners. Their expertise and knowledge of local conditions enables us to develop our manuals and services for each location. Working closely together ensures that we can offer students and entrepreneurs the tools they need to achieve their goals.
