Davis & Hodgdon Client The BOMA Project Was Given a Gift of $10M From Mackenzie Scott

Author and philanthropist MacKenzie Scott has donated $10 million to Davis & Hodgdon client The BOMA Project, a Kenya and U.S. based nonprofit that empowers women to establish sustainable livelihoods, build resilient families, graduate from extreme poverty, and catalyze change in their rural communities. BOMA is one of 286 high-impact organizations chosen for Scott’s recent round of giving.

Since 2009, BOMA has lifted more than 226,000 women and children out of extreme poverty — defined as living on less than $1.90 per day. This gift will allow BOMA to accelerate and expand its work across Africa to reach millions of women and families.

“This transformational gift is instrumental in helping BOMA to scale our work and expand our reach,” said BOMA CEO John Stephens. “The pandemic has pushed millions worldwide into extreme poverty, and there is an urgent need for sustainable solutions. We’re proud that MacKenzie Scott has affirmed and invested in BOMA’s powerful impact in that arena.”
