About the Role

WHY JOIN THE ADVISORY BOARD? We are looking for passionate leaders and change-makers who are eager to make a difference and create a meaningful legacy in children's education. Use your expertise and network to help expand our efforts. Together, we have successfully sent over 6,000 children to school.

Our Vision : We envision a world where every child can access quality early education. We believe in fostering dignity, not dependency. As venture philanthropists, we view our schools as investments, working to strengthen society through educated children.

The Role : The Advisory Board’s mission involves

  • Providing strategic and operational recommendations to executive leadership.
  • Offering insights on proposed motions before Board of Directors votes.
  • Participating in assigned Steering Committees (e.g., Development, Impact, Nominations, Events).
  • Expanding our professional, corporate, and institutional networks.
  • Supporting fundraising efforts and engaging with major events and galas.

    • Ideal Candidate

    If you are an impact-driven leader who is passionate about education and committed to building transformative solutions, we invite you to apply and help us create a lasting legacy.

  • Values the privilege and responsibility of serving on a board.
  • Passionate about the mission—placing service before self.
  • Honors and respects diverse voices and opinions.
  • Maintains humility while exhibiting fierce resolve.

    • Time Commitment

    Financial Commitment

    Minimum pledge of $3,500 annually (generally structured as a monthly contribution of $300). While there is no specific 'get', advisory support is crucial to our fundraising success.
