Impacting through Education, Economic Development and Empowering Leaders

Education

Of the 780 million children worldwide, eight percent do not attend school due to financial insecurity. That’s 58.4 million children that deserve a fighting chance, and our role is to LEAN IN and provide them a pathway to education.

Women continue to fight one of many forms of job restriction in more than 86 countries, and 95 countries have yet to offer equity in pay. Our focus is to go INWARD to help guarantee their full economic participation while encouraging entrepreneurship, self-efficacy and financial independence.

Economic Development

We aim to INSTILL positive leadership values in emerging professionals to help them continue to pay it forward through their own impactful missions as a way to serve their own communities. The focus is to deliver strategic skills training and coaching to help them offer solutions in their respective environments.

Empowering Leaders
