Economic independence is at the heart of what we do. The Gatsby Showcase Foundation advances inclusive economic growth by equipping historically marginalized communities with the tools, resources, and opportunities needed to build sustainable livelihoods.
Aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals particularly SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth), SDG 5 (Gender Equality), and SDG 10 (Reduced Inequalities) our work focuses on entrepreneurship, small business development, mentorship, and financial literacy as pathways to long-term stability and prosperity.

We address systemic barriers through advocacy, strategic partnerships, and hands-on support. From engaging with policymakers and community partners to supporting entrepreneurs and workforce development initiatives, our programs are designed to foster resilience, expand opportunity, and create lasting economic impact for underserved communities locally and globally.
