Meet Our Team
Empowering Girls Together
Our dedicated teams share a commitment to create a world where every girl has the opportunity to reach her full potential, empowered by access to education and job skills training. Central to our mission is the principle of working alongside our community.
We understand that sustainable change can only be achieved through genuine collaboration and partnership with the communities we serve. We prioritize listening to the needs, aspirations, and insights of those we work with, ensuring that our initiatives are not only impactful but also culturally relevant and responsive. To this, our dedicated US-based Board members are financially committed to operational costs, directing stakeholder resources to local leadership, community, and programming.
