Global Family Initiative

Impact investing in projects designed and led by the communities they serve.

Providing 109,000+ nights of safety and supporting over 75 social impact projects

We work to connect people to resources like safe housing, food and supplies, psychosocial support, and critical information, as well as seed funding for community impact projects, which contribute to economic, environmental, and social well-being.

Why the Global Family Initiative?

At the heart of the Global Family Initiative is a commitment to empowering communities and fostering resilience. By supporting alumni-led ventures with seed funding and wellbeing resources, we nurture leaders creating tailored solutions for local challenges. Through investments in social impact projects and direct aid like food, shelter, and emergency relief, we build pathways to sustainability and economic growth. Join us in driving meaningful change.

“The funding I received from SafePlace International was really helpful because I was able to move from a single room shelter to a two bedroom flat shelter where I was able to accommodate a few more persons.”

Recipient, Global Family Initiative

“It has helped because I was able to take a few people off the streets and who had nowhere to go to put a roof over their heads.”
