Our mission

To enable inclusive support to schools and their learners in poverty, by establishing 1 to 1 partnerships between schools in a transparent, repeatable business model.

This means:

We work collaboratively with school communities and individuals to build the capacity of children to flourish and escape poverty through education and good health, which provide the child opportunities for a successful future.

We partner schools in Developed countries with schools in Australia, facilitating student to student learning relationships and providing educational support through resources and infrastructure projects.

We provide programs in Developing country schools that promote positive educational outcomes, better health, gender equity and greater understanding.

We inform students and school communities in Australia about the culture and circumstances experienced by students in their partner school in a Developing country. We empower Australian students to make a positive, direct and tangible difference in the lives of students at their partner school.

Our Vision

To alleviate poverty through education and health support of children.

To facilitate sustainable school communities.

To increase awareness and understanding of different cultures.

This means we aim to:

  • improve education and health outcomes for students in Developing nations

  • alleviate poverty through education and health support for children

  • facilitate sustainable communities in Developing nations

  • partner schools in Developed nations with schools in Developing nations

  • increase awareness, understanding and generosity between people of Developed and Developing nations
