What Your Investment Supports
Work for Life is a non-profit organization working to eradicate poverty by raising up entrepreneurs in developing countries. We prefer to think of the money you contribute as an investment.
"When considering your donation amount, remember that it costs only $12 to support one student through the complete Work for Life (WFL) coursework. Thank you for your generosity."
Work for Life believes in multiplication.
When you contribute to Work for Life, you fund a comprehensive program that enables a certified instructor to teach classes of 25+ prospective entrepreneurs. Many of those entrepreneurs go on to start businesses that enable them to provide for their families.
In addition, many of those entrepreneurs hire employees who are also able to provide for their families. In the process, they begin to eliminate poverty, hardship and hopelessness in their communities. This in turn gives other people the hope and energy to do the same.
And, their children grow up seeing their parents working; providing; fulfilling their potential.
Bottom line: We are business people who know how to stretch a dollar to make the maximum impact.
