Oak Foundation commits its resources to address issues of global, social and environmental concern, particularly those that have a major impact on the lives of the disadvantaged.

We are honored to have been a recipient of a three year core support grant from Oak Foundation.
Based out of the United States with a distributed team of world class technology educators all over the world, ROI Training has been a dream partner. Not only have their Google and Amazon award winning trainers provided free support to our students, ROI Training has also paid for our office in Zimbabwe for the past two years. This has been critical for ensuring that our team has a centralized location with access to high speed internet and reliable electricity. We are deeply moved by ROI Training’s commitment to our mission.
Nedbank Zimbabwe was the first corporation to step up and sponsor an Uncommon Innovation Hub, making a free coding education possible for 1,000s of youth and young adults in Bulawayo. We are inspired by their bold and decisive approach to philanthropy, and their leadership in the Corporate Social Responsibility space.
The Australian Embassy in Zimbabwe has had a hand to play in nearly every Innovation Hub we’ve built, none more important than the first one! Through their grant giving in Zimbabwe, the Australian people have contributed mightily and we are honored to have been able to execute such important and empowering work thanks to the generosity of the Australian people.
When Dulux told us that they’re in the relationships business, and they also happen to sell paint, we knew we’d met the right people. The Dulux team understood our vision right away, and has helped us bring new life to our weathered spaces to make sure that our Innovation Hubs remained beacons of inspiration in the community.
Our partnerships are as unique and special as the diverse companies in our community. With so many ways to get involved, we’d love to welcome you to our uncommon community!
If you or your company would like to support our work in Zimbabwe, we’d love to hear from you. Our dedicated development team is here to make giving - in any of its forms - easy, fun, efficient and impactful.
Thank you for your generosity, together we really can make a difference.
