Because only together we can
build a world where TALENT NEVER DIES BECAUSE OF POVERTY
Our Vision & Mission
Vision
To build a better world for our future generation by fostering education, creating livelihood & embracing sustainability.
Mission
We tirelessly dedicate our efforts to foster quality education through comprehensive mentorship, financial support, and supplementary tuition. We also strive to break the cycle of poverty by generating diverse livelihood opportunities and promote sustainability through producing eco-friendly products and reducing waste, creating a more liveable and thriving planet for the generations to come.
How We Do It!
1. Identify Child
Identification & qualification of child is the most important aspect for the success of our vision. There are mainly two sources of children –
- Direct – We will approach schools, different institutions like orphanages to identify needy talented children.
- Indirect – Needy children can be reported by some one else as well through different channels like facebook, events or website.
2. Connect a Mentor
We also look out for like-minded people who want to build an extended family by becoming mentor and providing support to these talented children to reach their full potential. It is expected that mentors will consider their mentees as their own and building strong bond over the time. It is long-term commitment based on love, respect and empathy. Willing mentors can reach us directly or we can approach them through different channels. They can express their preference like geography, age group, talent type etc and we will try to match based on available children. A person can have multiple mentees, but one child can have only one mentor at a time. This is not a financial assistance program, rather mentor should take the ownership and provide all kind of assistance including guidance, counselling etc as well. Willing persons can mentor children remotely and we will help them to be in touch with their mentees on continuous basis. An individual or an institution or a group of persons can collectively become mentor for one or multiple children. To become a mentor, please click Be a Mentor.
3. Meet the Last Mile
A person can become mentor to as many children as he or she wish remotely without geographical limitation. It is quite possible that mentor will not be able to do all the required activities on his or her own for his or her mentees since most likely these children will be located at remote places far from mentors. We facilitate and build the last mile connection to deliver required materials, services, manpower. We provide digital access to all mentors to check their mentees, utilization of their fund, performance of their mentees, milestones achieved etc. To scale, we take help of change agents who are local persons and can build relationship, monitor and provide guidance at grass root level. We essentially build bridge among all the important stakeholders like biological parents, institutions, children, mentors, change agents etc to successfully run the entire delivery system. We organize events, award functions to attract and encourage children and nurture their talent. To be a volunteer, click Be a Volunteer.
