What We Do

Support. Empower. Release.

We work alongside communities to build local capacity, strengthen wellbeing, and create pathways to self-sufficiency. Here's what that looks like across nations.

Every Child Deserves a Fair Start

From dance studios in Colombo to classrooms in Nairobi, we create safe environments where children build confidence, develop skills, and access opportunities that would otherwise be out of reach.

Through the P61 Mighty Step Academy of Dance in Sri Lanka, 400+ children weekly develop self-expression, discipline, and a sense of belonging through movement and the arts.

When Women Lead, Communities Thrive

Research consistently shows that investing in women delivers the highest social return. When a woman gains confidence and capability, her entire family and community benefits.

Through the E-girl Empowerment Initiative, we create safe, supportive spaces where young women develop leadership skills, build self-worth, and connect with mentors who help them chart their own path.

Sport Builds Discipline and Resilience

Sport teaches young people teamwork, discipline, and perseverance — skills that translate directly into education, employment, and community leadership. The P61 Rugby Academy in Kenya provides structured, safe environments where young people are supported, empowered, and set up for long-term success.

Mercy, Don & Dim — Yangon

Three sisters dedicated their lives to caring for young children whose families couldn't afford education or food. They created a safe, nurturing environment where children could learn, eat, and develop.

Sadly, their home was taken away. We are working with them to rebuild a safe environment and secure land so they and the children can continue to thrive.
