Mission

Our Mission overall, is to motivate our future leaders by providing them with a more enthusiastic approach to learning and to raise awareness of social welfare, as well as closing the gap between businesses, local schools, and your local community. *Without A Voice (WAV) cannot put enough emphasis on the fact that a child's education is a shared responsibility and that "we must be the change we want to see". WAV/Project-WAV advocates on behalf of those who are lacking in areas of literacy and with those experiencing the negative impact of social welfare, such as (any form of) abuse and neglect, whether physical, mental or emotional. This also includes bullying, cyber-bullying and organ, human and sex trafficking.

Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

Our ultimate goal is to service disenfranchised communities worldwide by partnering with other like-minded organizations, community leaders, activists, and businesses that share our vision of strengthening individuals and families, by providing them with the necessary tools, education, and resources required to obtain and maintain, a sustainable lifestyle.

Our strategy overall, is to motivate our future leaders by providing them with a more enthusiastic approach to life. We have implemented three very dynamic programs into our organizational structure. These programs bring a robust blend of innovation and creativity to the forefront -promoting the Arts through, positivity and cultural diversity, producing a pathway to community resilience.


Working collaboratively with the community, and partnering allows us to provide a safe-haven to facilitate support services and provide resources.

Through partnering we have been able to work as a unit to identify problems and to explore the possibility of solutions. Through our collaborated efforts, relationships are formed, and needs are being met.
