We provide free education in the rural countryside while developing sustainable solutions for waste and poverty. We are creating opportunities for social enterprises that are ecologically & environmentally
viable .
We have volunteers and interns worldwide that work with us to develop sustainability programs that create a social and educational environment where all who are involved are able to collectively thrive. We are currently developing a digital skill set program and a fully self-sustainable eco-village as a scalable model for eco-construction.
We offer a Leadership in Sustainability Internship to gain co-working skills, self development practices, sustainability knowledge and hands-on experience with Eco-building. We work together with locals from our community to implement sustainable solutions.
We encourage our volunteers & donors to utilize their unique skills and creativity by working together with us in establishing a thriving community. “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has." -Margaret Mead
We bring people from all over the world together in cross-cultural collaborations and experiential learning that raises the quality of living for all involved. We promote student leadership & foster immersive travel for our interns for young minds have the opportunity to grow into sustainability-focused, philanthropic innovators.
We are implementing sustainable development tactics that turn waste into resources through eco-building and sustainable energy. We hope to create a model that can spread to other villages and throughout the world to promote economic success that is in alignment with ecological values.
