About Us

History 

 Established in 2021, the Kaatyo Aondoaaka Foundation (KAF) is committed to empowering African youth, Women, and senior Civil Servants with less than five years of active service through entrepreneurship promotion. Inspired by Chief TONY O ELUMELU's #Africapitalism philosophy and the AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK, the founder received a $5,000 business seed capital through the Tony Elumelu Foundation TEEP program in 2019. KAF's mission is to reshape the mindset of Africans, promoting entrepreneurship as a fulfilling career path. We achieve this through workshops and mentorship programs at schools, youth camps and special conferences focusing on critical thinking and resilience. Collaborating with professionals, advocating for entrepreneurship-friendly policies, and bridging the resource gap, KAF seeks to contribute to economic development and poverty reduction in Africa. Our vision is to nurture socially conscious, and innovative African entrepreneurs who drive sustainable progress by creating jobs with special focus on fresh female Graduates and women (Urban and Rural). 

What we do

Enterprise Campaign Program

The Kaatyo Aondoaaka Foundation (KAF) is committed to driving positive change in Africa through its OWN YOUR ENTERPRISE CAMPAIGN PROGRAM. This initiative empowers African youth, women, and entrepreneurs to embrace entrepreneurship and spur economic growth. KAF conducts workshops, mentoring, and competitions, fostering an entrepreneurial mindset in schools, universities, and NYSC camps. The foundation extends its efforts to advocate for entrepreneurship resources within communities, with a special focus on empowering women and youth to combat unemployment and poverty. Collaborating with government, the private sector, and NGOs, KAF aims to bridge the resource gap for micro entrepreneurs, envisioning a more innovative and empowered African future through the OWN YOUR ENTERPRISE CAMPAIGN PROGRAM. 

Elevator Pitch

In response to a recurring question from participants on how to access startup capital,  The Kaatyo Aondoaaka Foundation (KAF) is launching the Pitch and Win Business Support Funds Program in Africa to address the challenge of accessing startup capital. This innovative initiative targets NYSC Camp attendees, Micro Business Owners, and graduating students, providing them with a platform for engaging elevator pitches. A distinctive feature is the instant-win aspect, with experienced entrepreneurs assessing pitches and immediately awarding customized startup capital. KAF emphasizes inclusivity and ethical entrepreneurship, offering guidance on business incorporation and banking practices. The ultimate goal is to empower entrepreneurs, foster innovation, and drive long-term economic growth in Africa, responding to the pressing need for startup funding.
