WE ALL TOGETHER

We create partnerships of great purpose to find solutions that last. And whether it's improving global health, education, promoting life and wellness, increasing opportunity for girls and women, reducing childhood obesity, creating economic opportunity and growth, or helping communities and address the effects of climate change, we know we're only successful when we work with others. We hope you'll join us.

2019 was a remarkable year. We officially became the Nurjahan Foundation Global Initiative affiliated by Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation — recognizing the extraordinary roles that each of the NFGI’s have in driving our work. We reached new milestones across each of our programs, and created new programs in areas where we knew we could make a difference — a testament to our dedicated volunteers, supporters, commitment makers, and partners. As a result, we’ve been able to change more lives and transform even more communities around the country.

We’ve highlighted several of our recent milestones as well as goals for the coming year — proof-positive that, when we work together, we can have a greater impact than when we work on our own. We’re optimistic about what we can achieve together in past, and we look forward to continuing to work with our friends and partners around the world to build a stronger, more equal global community.

Commitments to Action

A Commitment to Action – the defining feature of NFGI – is a project, developed, and executed by NFGI members, that addresses a significant challenge. Each commitment includes a detailed project plan that outlines clear and measurable objectives, a timeline and budget, and key steps required to achieve success. Commitments can be small or large, financial or non-monetary, and philanthropic or core business-related. Many commitments leverage new resources through cross-sector partnerships, with commitment-makers combining efforts to expand their impact.

NEW

A NFGI commitment must be a new project that addresses a key challenge. While ongoing work is not eligible, an expansion of a successful program with key new elements does qualify as a valid Commitment to Action.

SPECIFIC

A NFGI commitment must outline a specific approach to a problem, have clear and feasible objectives to be accomplished within a defined period of time, and articulate the desired outcome of the effort.

MEASURABLE

A NFGI commitment must have specific quantitative goals that can be monitored by the commitment maker to evaluate progress over time.

VIABLE

A NFGI commitment must present a plan to secure sufficient monetary and/or non-monetary resources to carry out the core function of the project over its full duration.

ACCOUNTABLE

A NFGI commitment must track quantitative and qualitative progress and report annually to NFGI to show the extent of the project’s impact.

Building on a lifetime of public service, Dr. Nurjahan Begum (Ph.D.), established the Nurjahan Foundation Global Initiative on the simple belief that everyone deserves a chance to succeed, everyone has a responsibility to act, and we all do better when we work together. Those values have energized the work of the Foundation in overcoming complex challenges and improving the lives of people across the Bangladesh and around the world.

As an operating foundation, we work on issues directly or with strategic partners from the business, government, and nonprofit sectors to create economic opportunity, improve public health, and inspire civic engagement and service. Our programs are designed to make a real difference today while serving as proven models for tomorrow. The goal of every effort is to use available resources to get better results faster – at the lowest possible cost.

We firmly believe that when diverse groups of people bring resources together in the spirit of true cooperation, transformative ideas will emerge to drive life-changing action.
