Our story

Just before Christmas in 2016, a friend handed me a book. He scribbled on its cover,

"Do one thing that scares you next year."

That challenge hit home. I was always one to choose the easier path, but soon, I found myself backpacking alone through Nepal, heading for the renowned Mt. Everest Base Camp in search of purpose and meaning.

On that winding trail, I stumbled upon a different reality. Young boys and girls, out of school and struggling in jobs that hardly paid. 

Then, there was Madan, a 16-year-old porter. He shared that not too long ago, he walked 3 to 4 hours every day to get to school, filled with dreams. Now, he had to work just to get by.

At the start, the path was unclear, but a calling had found me. I felt a strong need to make a difference, to merge my passion for entrepreneurship and love for education to lift those at the very bottom.
