In their words:
We are an online community providing scholarships to students around the world. We search the globe for innovative educational programs and link high potential students to donors using technology. This allows people to make contributions of as low as $20, and collectively support individual students.We believe that:
• Education is an investment in people, communities and future local economies.
• Our personal success, curiosity and values were shaped by the educational opportunities we received in and outside of the classroom. We want to create similar opportunities for all young people.
• Scholarship programs are key to providing access to education to students in developed countries, and we’d like to take this concept elsewhere.
