WHO
WE ARE

OUR MISSION & HISTORY

It's Philanthropy started with a simple question in 2022 - why isn't education available to everyone?

​

As a child of Greek migrants and a father of three, I'm still aghast that there are children in impoverished countries that are denied access to education. Studies by UNESCO show that a lack of education has significant lifelong implications for the health and economic well-being of individuals, families and communities.

​

By teaching a child to read, you can give them hope for a lifetime. By feeding a child at school, they can concentrate on defining for themselves a better future.
 

We are not just about providing aid, but a strive for real self-sufficiency so that these children are empowered to thrive and not live a life dependent on charity. That's why we work with Health And Development Aid Abroad (HADA), a registered Australian charity, to ensure all gifts are tax deductible for Australian donors and will be sent to the designated projects in their entirety except for bank fees.

​

We know that a book is mightier than a hand-out. A school chair, a lunchtime meal, a supply teacher, or a musical instrument are agents of transformation.

​

For us, focus to maximise results is pivotal. That’s why we empower disadvantaged communities, in the poorest countries, through child education, one village at a time. Planting seeds of change everywhere we go.
 

Help us today to create education for change and give some of the world’s poorest kids a brighter future.

​

Thank you,
