Posted on by trilinc_admin17

Since inception, TriLinc has invested over $1.5 billion in 100 enterprises across 35 countries. In 2024, we remained steadfast in our commitment to supporting borrower companies as they continue to navigate the aftermath of COVID, the most significant economic crisis in over a century.

TriLinc’s impact tracking and reporting disciplines are grounded in the belief that capitalism can be a powerful force for good. In 2024, we continued to drive impact in three meaningful ways:

  • Investing in established, sustainable lower middle-market businesses that generate measurable impact in financial inclusion and/or the global climate transition;
  • Empowering investors with the opportunity to provide critical financing for these high-impact, growth-stage enterprises; and
  • Contributing personally through the TriLinc team’s own community development efforts and volunteerism.

TriLinc Global Honors Women’s History Month & International Women’s Day

Posted on by trilinc_admin17

This International Women’s Day and Women’s History Month, TriLinc Global celebrates the remarkable life and legacy of Wangari Maathai, a visionary leader whose courage and determination transformed lives and landscapes. Known affectionately as “Mama Trees” by many in Kenya, Maathai was a force of nature in every sense. She made history as the first woman in East and Central Africa to earn a doctorate degree, breaking barriers and paving the way for future generations of women.

 In 1977, Maathai founded the Green Belt Movement, empowering over 900,000 women through economic initiatives that combined environmental conservation with community development. By planting trees, these women not only restored degraded lands but also gained financial independence and a stronger voice in their communities. Maathai’s famous words, “You cannot protect the environment unless you empower people,” continue to resonate as a call to action for collective progress.

 In 2004, Maathai’s extraordinary contributions were recognized globally when she became the first African woman and the first environmentalist to receive the Nobel Peace Prize. Her work demonstrated the profound connection between environmental sustainability, social justice, and peace.

 TriLinc honors Wangari Maathai, a true trailblazer who showed the world the power of perseverance, the importance of standing up for what is right, and the impact of doing many “little things” with great love and determination. Her legacy continues to inspire us to champion equality, sustainability, and empowerment for all.
