The Visa Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Visa, works with charitable organisations to support under-served people and communities. As its central focus, the Visa Foundation is committed to helping low-income, financially under-served micro- and small enterprises around the world to thrive and prosper. The foundation also supports broader community needs as well as humanitarian responses in times of crisis.

The Visa Foundation granted US$ 4.5 million to the Gavi COVAX AMC for an inclusive economic recovery, with the aim of ensuring global equitable access to a vaccine – to everyone, everywhere. 

The donation was matched by the Gavi Matching Fund, a public-private funding mechanism to support Gavi’s programmes supported by the  Gates Foundation.
