A new grant program from Diamonds Do Good and United People Global will provide financial support and business expertise to entrepreneurs in diamond mining communities.

"New York—Diamonds Do Good has launched a grant program to provide financial support and business expertise to promising entrepreneurs.

The program is a $100,000 partnership between DDG and United People Global, which runs sustainability leadership training for “young change-makers” working on projects addressing all 17 of the Sustainable Development Goals.

Established by the United Nations, the goals include ending poverty and hunger, reaching gender equality, using affordable and clean energy, promoting quality education, and more.

A minimum of five grantees will be chosen, with funding ranging from $5,000 to $20,000.

The 2022 Diamonds Do Good Entrepreneurship Grant will be won by entrepreneurs from diamond-producing countries in southern Africa, where many gem-quality natural diamonds are mined.

The move keeps with DDG’s mission of supporting initiatives that develop and empower people in diamond mining communities across the world.

Providing access to capital through small amounts of money invested in early-stage start-ups will further help build and nurture Africa’s private sector, DDG said in a press release.
