Yes, a direct debit mandate can be canceled at any time. Just send us an email about it.

So far, we have been able to invest 100% of private donations directly into our start-ups because of the generous support of institutional donors. In general, we aim to deploy 90% of private donations as cash investments or capacity building.

In principle, we are open to all start-ups that generate a social or sustainable impact in regions of extreme poverty. However, we do place a special emphasis on agriculture/food, circular economy, green energy/mobility, health, manufacturing, services, and WASH.
