A Chance for Change Foundation

A Chance for Change Foundation is a nonprofit community lender dedicated to helping entrepreneurs generate income, build assets, create jobs and achieve financial success through business ownership. Our approach sets us apart: We work hand-in-hand with entrepreneurs to overcome every obstacle standing between them and their dream of owning a thriving business.

A Chance for Change Foundation is working to raise funds and promote entrepreneurship initiatives to serve the people who need them most. We believe in taking action with the urgency to raise public awareness about some of the most pressing issues facing today’s society. We have several programs designed to raise businesses for Zambia. We believe that by creating businesses, we will curb the high unemployment levels which seem to be unsolved to society. A Chance for Change Foundation will always put entrepreneurs at heart in raising funds for their start-up business or that business expansion they need without giving them the stress to worry about repayment. Our Business Incubation program provides entrepreneurs with a knowledge-filled environment to successfully develop their business.

We strive to support the growth and success of entrepreneurs and startups through the delivery of world-class incubation and acceleration programs that are accompanied by funding. This involves providing the environment and support for local innovative enterprise to sustain and scale, assisting long-term economic development and increase in sustainable employment in Zambia.
