Einstein Rising Canada
Our Purpose is to promote and advance education opportunities and social entrepreneurship for impact in the developing world by providing mentorship, guidance and financial support to students, schools, local nonprofit accelerator organizations and social impact entrepreneurs.
Our Work
Our mission is to advance education and social impact entrepreneurship in the developing world by promoting education and providing school supplies, training, mentorship, resources, and financial support to primary schools, students, and local entrepreneurs.
Why a Girls Football Tournament? Girls need to have the same access to education as boys. Although the number of girls enrolled at the foundation level classes in Uganda is always equal to or even more than that of boys, as the children grow older, the number of girls attending school declines steadily. Even with the introduction of free universal primary education, the number of girls graduating from primary schools remains very low. Four out of five girls do not attend high school.
The Sister Schools program provides Canadian students with a global experience in personal philanthropy. We teach compassion, service, and social responsibility by partnering students from schools in Canada with children in low income schools in Uganda . In a powerfully personal way, our students learn that no matter who they are, or what they look like, they have the ability to change someone’s life.
IMPACT LOANS
Our loans range in value from micro loans of up to $1,000, with little or no interest depending on the impact the borrower provides on the community.
IMPACT GRANTS
For entrepreneurs that present ideas that significantly improve the lives of marginalized society yet lack the potential to be self-sustainable.
Your experience can enlighten the journey of a young entrepreneur. We invite you to mentor a young social impact entrepreneur in Uganda.
