  • As an education sponsor for the poorest, we transform the lives of children and their families for generations to come.
  • In health, we help remote communities and children with disabilities reach the care they need.

Such cultures have plenty to teach wealthier communities about true sustainability and lower-stress lifestyles. Thus we learn from our partner communities in a mutual exchange of human expertise.
