Alfanar.
Portfolio, impact, and donation platform for the Arab region’s venture philanthropy pioneer.
The client
Alfanar pioneered venture philanthropy in the Arab region in 2004 — patient capital and hands-on support for social enterprises across Egypt, Lebanon, Jordan, and Palestine: 224 funded, £8.8M deployed, 484,000 lives touched.
The brief
One platform to carry Alfanar’s entire model: a living portfolio of funded social enterprises, impact reported with the rigour donors expect, and donation flows that turn belief into backing.
What we did
- UI/UX design centred on Alfanar’s impact story
- Web development in React and Wagtail
- Portfolio management and impact reporting
- Donation integration
- Accessibility engineered throughout
- Event platform for the Arab Impact Summit 2026 in Amman
Where it stands
A digital home for Alfanar’s mission of building the impact economy — and a partnership that now extends to the Arab Impact Summit 2026, with Unomena a named partner of the summit.
The Arab Impact Summit.
The partnership now reaches beyond the main site. We designed and built the platform for the Arab Impact Summit 2026 — Alfanar’s convening of regional leaders and investors in Amman this October. The summit names Unomena among its partners: not just the studio behind the build, but a backer of the gathering itself.
