2019 ANNUAL REPORT

Harnessing the Transformative Power of Education to Realize People’s Full Potential and to Improve Lives endeavors to create impact in the areas of Learning Environments, Future Leaders and Medical Research and Sciences, covering the full lifecycle of human development and promoting lifelong learning.

We apply our interventions in the early years (0-6 years old), for which we build Learning Environments by enhancing parenting and caregiving skills, developing programs to nurture school-ready children, as well as advancing quality of basic education for school-aged children (7-16 years old).

Through scholarships, experiential learning and partnerships, we empower adolescents and young adults (17-22 years old) with core and added competencies to realize their potential as Future Leaders.

Because health is an important aspect – alongside quality education – in one’s journey to realizing one’s potential and living a dignified life, we seek to improve the healthspan of communities through our continuous support of Medical Research & Sciences.
