Who We Are
The Aga Khan Foundation is a leading global development organization working to tackle the root causes of poverty. Aga Khan Foundation USA supports this mission by mobilizing resources and volunteers in the U.S.
Our Unique Approach
For nearly 60 years, the Aga Khan Foundation has been improving the quality of life in some of the most remote, resource-constrained parts of Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. Our poverty-alleviation efforts are rooted in a firm commitment to pluralism, human dignity, and non-denominational service to all.

We Stay for Generations
AKF stands with communities for the long-term, building trust and enabling tranformation.

We’re Locally Led
Through culturally grounded partnerships, we blend local wisdom with global expertise.

We Think Holistically
Poverty isn’t one-dimensional, so our solutions aren’t either. We work to transform systems.

We Rely on You
AKF is powered by volunteers, donors, and sponsors who enable us to create lasting global impact.
