About Impact SpaceA Journey of Sustainable Impact

Founded in 2020, Impact Space is a global non-profit dedicated to tackling poverty through education and empowerment. With a social learning platform serving learners from over 40 countries and field teams operating in seven African nations—Ghana, Kenya, Liberia, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Uganda, and Zimbabwe—we create measurable change across Africa and beyond.

Challenge: Millions around the world face limited access to education, resources, and economic opportunities, trapping them in a cycle of poverty.

Our Solution/Mission: Leverage technology to engage, educate, empower, and equip young people with skills, resilience, and empathy to lift their communities out of poverty.

Vision: A world where young people lead the fight against poverty, building thriving and sustainable communities.

Our ProgramsEmpowering the Next Generation to End Poverty

In the global fight against poverty, our mission is to educate, empower, and equip youth to lead their communities out of poverty. With 1.4 billion people living in multi-dimensional poverty, the urgency for access to food, healthcare, and education cannot be overstated. We align our programs with seven key Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to drive meaningful change: No Poverty, Zero Hunger, Good Health and Well-being, Quality Education, Gender Equality, Affordable and Clean Energy, and Decent Work and Economic Growth.
