Can philanthropists make money and do good? Bob Collymore, CEO of Safaricom, wants to transform the lives of consumers, shareholders, and people most in need. For Collymore, commercial success can help lead philanthropic endeavours, and in this video, he shares how his life has been shaped by this philosophy.
“Why Give,” a series of interviews with Africa’s strategic philanthropic leaders, was jointly produced by the Global Philanthropy Forum and the African Philanthropy Forum (APF). Since its launch, the APF has been made possible through the support of USAID, Higher Life Foundation, The MasterCard Foundation, Anonymous, Rockefeller Foundation, Tony Elumelu Foundation, The Elma Growth Foundation, Dangote Foundation, James Mwangi and the World Affairs Council.
