Investing for Resilience
Impact Report 2025

In 2025, RAMA Impact advanced its mission to strengthen women-led social enterprises operating in underserved communities across Africa and the Middle East by deploying patient, non-extractive capital paired with structured technical support. Through zero-interest, collateral-free financing and tailored capacity building, we enabled early-stage women-led climate and health ventures to stabilize operations, protect livelihoods and expand their impact. The year’s results reaffirm that thoughtfully designed catalytic capital can serve as critical infrastructure for building resilient, locally rooted economies.
