Philanthropy, volunteering, and social entrepreneurship

I can be the change? For real? What does this little kid know about the world, let alone the changes it needs? Quite a lot, as it turns out.

Vision: To teach children the art and skill of ‘Giving’ through experiential and collaborative learning.

For kids who have often spent a long time on the receiving end of services and welfare to engage with kids who need the most.

The program believes that by exposing children to philanthropy and social enterprise it is possible to create a positive context for an entire generation of young children giving them the opportunity to take up responsibilities, learn leadership skills and ultimately make a difference in this world.

We raise awareness in children about the needs in disadvantaged communities, with a focus on empowering them to take positive action.

We would love to involve you in giving your child the opportunity to contribute and continue to achieve this goal and the inspired provision of many varied educational opportunities to learn, grow, develop leadership, develop empathy and become change makers of future.
