Who We Are

Our purpose is to enable human potential by increasing access to opportunities to individuals and communities where our intervention will likely result in amplified outcomes. We aim to achieve this through financial and in-kind support. We prioritize disadvantaged and vulnerable communities as well as socially responsible programs. 

We are guided by the belief that every human being is endowed with unique God given potential to be productive and be an achiever in various ways. We acknowledge that this potential may not always be realized if necessary supportive structures are not in place. A potential astronaut is unlikely to become one if he or she lacks the opportunity to go to school in the first place.

What We Do

Providing educational scholarships to assist kids to attend selected schools in Zimbabwe is one of our cornerstone programs. This involves paying for their tuition fees and any required supplies like school uniforms, books etc. 

In Zimbabwe and perhaps other African countries, there are no public school systems in place. Parents and guardians have to meet the educational expenses of their kids from the moment they enroll into preschool all the way up to university level. This comes against a background in which most of the parents and guardians have little to no income to support such educational expenses. Most of them live below the poverty datum line. Although they work hard doing basic jobs or subsistence farming, their meagre income simply cannot meet their basic needs like housing, food and transportation. 

The sad reality is that their kids will end up failing to go to school. Our educational scholarships help with closing that gap. We believe that one of the best ways to connect people with their potential in a sustainable and futuristic way, is to provide access to education. By doing so, we are helping with fighting generational poverty and inequity.
