Social Impact Project for Capital Roadmap Development for social enterprise (Nonprofit + For Profit)

Project Description and Impact

Global Leading Light Initiatives (Renaming to Izani) is launching Ibali Lam 3.0, a social enterprise designed to empower rural entrepreneurs through inventory financing and digital sales infrastructure, and to provide robotics education to schools. To move from idea to implementation, we need to raise between R20,000 and $50,000 in startup capital. We want to avoid the trap of reactive fundraising and instead build a thoughtful capital plan that guides us through this transition and positions us well for growth and sustainability.

Learning Opportunity
