Direct Giving
A DOLLAR DONATED IS A DOLLAR GIVEN.
Each of our volunteer members work together to turn your support into a life changing moment. Your help makes a direct impact in someone’s life. A little push goes a long way.
Local Leadership
WE EMPOWER COMMUNITIES TO SURVIVE AND THRIVE.
It takes a village to help someone, and we believe in empowering communities to help themselves long after we are gone. Through training, global mentorship, and local champions we teach self-governance.
Technology Driven
WE BELIEVE TECHNOLOGY TURNS A STEP INTO A LEAP.
From our projects to our community efforts to our internal collaboration we employ technology to make smarter and sustainable progress. We utilize technology to strengthen our communities and our efforts.
Our Vision
Learn more about us→
We envision a world in which one's starting point does not limit their educational opportunities and economic growth.
By providing access to physical & virtual learning centers established and sustained in collaboration with local communities, we enable those who are underserved to develop technological competencies to become competitive in the modern workplace.
Our Second School
Sitio Senamfledon, , Santa Fe, South Upi, Maguindanao is a far flung , mountainous community dominated by Indigenous Peoples—about 71 kilometers away from the City of Cotabato with rough roads going to the site. Because of its distance from the main center, the community has lesser access to development including the provision of good classrooms for school children. We are proposing construction of a one-story school building.
BUILDING IN THE MOUNTAINS
Our Third Project
Overlooking the mountains in Capas, Tarlac near the Santa Juliana Station is Sitio Bulacan, the site of the next school we are looking to build.
In partnership with Project Liwanag and the Dept. of Education of the Philippines we are building a 3 classroom + 1 living quarter school to allow for a teacher to live amongst the Aeta community. This school will focus on math, reading, and english for grades K-6. Despite challenges in electricity, food, and water the small village wants to build a school so that their children can live better lives.
