Strengthening Economies
While intelligence, hard work, and ability are all equally distributed in communities around the world, investment and opportunity are not. In Africa, where two-thirds of the population relies on agriculture for survival, farmers still lack access to the resources and markets they need to build a future. In Latin America, where the gap between rich and poor is perhaps more dramatic than anywhere else in the world, small entrepreneurs struggle simply to keep their businesses afloat, with little hope of growing economically, creating jobs, or uplifting their communities. And in the United States, small businesses face a tough economic reality: About half fail in their first five years. Yet they are crucial to inner-city communities, where they provide 80 percent of jobs.
In each of these regions, despite their unique challenges, the Clinton Foundation works to strengthen the capacity of people and communities to achieve greater, more sustainable levels of progress and prosperity. The Foundation's results-oriented programs — whether developing agribusinesses in Rwanda, helping small and medium enterprises access financial capital and new markets in Peru, or cultivating entrepreneurship through business-to-business mentoring in Oakland — ensure that people everywhere have the means to build their own future and lay the foundation for continued development.
