OUR MANTRA
We believe that independence is key to being able to pursue your dreams and lead the life you wish for. We empower agents of change to learn, grow and prosper – so that they one day might drive development. Our strategy aligns with several of the UN Sustainable development goals.
We work with schools and project in India, Thailand, Kenya and Uganda and are continuously trying to create social impact to the best of our ability.
We have three main pillars that we focus our projects on: Education, entrepreneurship and microfinance. Our areas of focus have been chosen based on UN reports and the SDG’s.
EDUCATION
We believe that quality education is a prerequisite for development – both on a personal level and in a social context. We provide access to education for those whose circumstances deny it
EQUALITY
We believe that equality between genders and across societal layers is fundamental in building safe environments where everyone can thrive and live a fulfilling life.
ENTREPRENEURSHIP
We offer entrepreneurial training to those who wish to learn how to build a thriving business.This enables them to become self-sustainable and make their own way in life.
PARTNERSHIPS
We seek to collaborate with both local and international partners in order to build competence and reach our goals of developing and delivering sustainable projects.
