Charting impact

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

35% of the world's population lives in an area with Internet coverage but lacks Internet access - they cannot afford it. We aim to allow individuals to sponsor their devices and connectivity.

We aim to collaborate with and support local educational nonprofits that work with refugee settlements and underserved students in rural areas from developing countries.

Our team is working on identifying outstanding non-profits in developing countries working with underserved and underprivileged youth who can lead the operations - namely, identify students in need, purchase and distribute laptops and cover Internet fees for the families.

Meanwhile, our goal is to refine, simplify and tailor our website to the needs of our donors to try to make it easy, simple, transparent and personal for them to donate monthly. We advocate for radical transparency, we tell the story of every student on our website, every transaction, bank statement, cost, project, team member is on our sites.

We plan to expand through referral programs, digital marketing, our partners and heavily rely on word-of-mouth to gain trust.

Data
  • We employ non-traditional ways of gathering feedback on programs and trainings, which may include interviews, roundtables, and external reviews with/by community stakeholders.
  • We disaggregate data by demographics, including race, in every policy and program measured.
  • We have long-term strategic plans and measurable goals for creating a culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the organization.
Policies and processes
  • We use a vetting process to identify vendors and partners that share our commitment to race equity.
  • We seek individuals from various race backgrounds for board and executive director/CEO positions within our organization.
  • We have community representation at the board level, either on the board itself or through a community advisory board.
  • We help senior leadership understand how to be inclusive leaders with learning approaches that emphasize reflection, iteration, and adaptability.
