Zimbabwean social entrepreneur Tsitsi Masiyiwa, wife of the countrys richest man Strive Masiyiwa, has launched RemitHope, a fintech-powered social enterprise aiming to raise 50 million to back 1,000 African-led organizations in 13 countries. The initiative is designed to channel diaspora remittances into practical community projects focused on education, health, livelihoods, emergency relief, and family welfare.
Building Africas solutions from within
RemitHope links underfunded local organizations with Africans both at home and abroad through a platform that verifies grassroots causes and guarantees secure, transparent giving. The reach of its work became clear in Zimbabwe when a fire tore through the Mount Selinda Childrens Home in Chipinge. Within three weeks, 1,033 donors across 10 countries contributed 40,519, an amount that was later doubled to 81,038 through partner support.
