Seed Funding
After travelling the world and running his own projects, the founder discovered how brutally hard it is to get funding for brilliant ideas. Self-funding his work since 2009 through small-scale farming practices, he watched countless youth-led initiatives die prematurely, not because the ideas lacked merit, but because funding chased big organizations instead.
That ends today. He started Tyrone Havnar Foundation to mentor young visionaries and prepare them for their leadership journey, then pool resources from believers worldwide, creating a lifeline for African youth leaders tackling exsisting community challenges. Our Seed grant applications for alumni and young leaders in leadership, disability inclusion, and social impact will open soon.
Our first 15 projects launch Q2 2026. Be part of the change.
