About Us

The MajiFund is a flexible, targeted funding facility for WASH SMEs.

The MajiFund contributes to the broader goal of transforming the private WASH sector from grant-dependent and NGO-led models to sustainable, market-driven enterprises through financing and business model support.

The MajiFund is a collaborative initiative born out of the
Majipreneurs Alliance that aims to provide consistent and continuous ecosystem development and business support for WASH entrepreneurs in the Global South.

The MajiFund is a dedicated facility designed to provide post-acceleration support to the most promising enterprises graduating from our acceleration programs.
