No single institution can solve the complex problem of unemployment alone. We are grateful for our many generous supporters. Approximately half of our global network funding comes from philanthropy and half from employers & government donors.

How we work

About partnering with Generation

We aim to work with partners across different sectors to create a more supportive and inclusive environment for people of all ages to access employment opportunities and succeed in their careers.

We work with different types of partners: employers, corporations, and philanthropy.

And our collaboration depends on the partners’ needs and objectives and can include funding, in-kind support, and ecosystem engagement.

Why partner with us?

At Generation, we believe in the power of employment to transform lives, and we know that you do too. Millions of people around the world struggle to make ends meet, much less to save money that can transform their lives and those of their families. And too often, good- paying jobs – the foundation for income stability and long-term well- being lie out of reach for people who face one or more systemic barriers due to their gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, education, and income.

With your partnership, together, we can create a world where everyone has the opportunity to build a better future.
