About CGHD and WHEN:

WHEN’s mission is to help organizations achieve meaningful and sustainable outcomes by scaling their existing efforts through innovative financing mechanisms.

WHEN identifies, leverages, and connects projects to alternative funding sources, including private sector finance, angel investors, development financial institutions, venture capital firms, and philanthropists.

As the Secretariat of WHEN, CGHD’s mission is to help organizations create measurable impact by scaling existing efforts, forming task forces, developing blended financing platforms, and advancing strategic initiatives.
