The United States African Development Foundation (USADF) is an Independent United States Government Agency that provides grants of up to $250,000 to community groups and small enterprises that benefit under-served and marginalized groups in Sub-Saharan Africa.〔Marginalized groups are people that have significant needs that are not being currently addressed by existing governments programs, NGOs, or other international development efforts.〕 The African Development Foundation measures grant success in terms of jobs created and sustained, increased incomes levels, and improved social conditions. In 2010, African Development Foundation budgeted over $20 million for project grants in 20 countries. An additional $4.5 million was budgeted for African-directed partner organizations that provide technical design and implementation support for the African Development Foundation's grantees.〔(About USADF ), www.usadf.gov.

It has since provided financing to more than 1,500 small enterprises and community-based organizations.〔(USADF Programs ), Quick Source Information Directory, www.usadf.gov.
