The Global Schoolhouse Initiative

 We are a registered Canadian charity and we provide free emergency education that is enhanced with resilience development to children in need. 

 

Our organization provides unique and free resilience based emergency education to children in impoverished and underserved communities. As I am sure you know, one of the greatest problems in our world today is the lack of access to a good education. By good education we are not referring to simple math and writing skills, we are referring to the ability to think for oneself, and to be able to apply that critical thinking to a number of new situations . . . the ability to be resilient. This is what makes our program stand apart from the rest. Many other great educational programs fail to address the core issues preventing these high risk children from breaking out of the destructive cycles they often find themselves a victim of. 

 

Our global schoolhouses are currently educating over 300 children in Mexico and Uganda combined. This year we are hoping to open 2 new locations, one of which is in Colombia. We focus on the quality of the program to ensure that these children are able to learn the adaptive skills they need at this very instrumental time in their development. Having lived through much adversity in my life, I am living proof of the power of resilience. This life experience and academic knowledge motivated me to create a program for children who I can really understand and identify with, along with the help of a team of PhD and Masters educators from around the world. 

We have 2 pending patents on our solution and we have seen it work in the short time we have been active. It has helped the lives of so many children and we need support to scale it even further and impact children in many more countries. Our solution is sustainable, economical, and user friendly. It has the potential to change the way education is viewed and delivered around the world, and has the ability to change the way charities operate as a whole.
