We are delighted to announce the successful final close of our Education Fund at $52 million. This marks an important milestone for us – as the first fund since Greater Share’s launch in 2022 – and we are proud to have raised capital from more than fifty individual investors and organisations across the world. Our innovative philanthropic investment model supports high-impact NGOs with additional long-term funding through investments in best-in-class private equity funds and donations from our private equity partners. A huge thank-you to our partners Bain Capital, Cinven, Hg, Lexington Partners, Nautic Partners LLC and Permira for their continued support. The Education Fund will provide sustainable funding over the next decade to eight NGOs focused on achieving greater education equity in underserved communities across the world. We are proud to support exceptional organisations such as aeioTU, AllChild, CAMFED - Campaign for Female Education, Kaivalya Education Foundation, KIPP Foundation, London Early Years Foundation (LEYF), National Institute for Student Success and Teach For All with their critical work. This journey would not have been possible without the extraordinary support of Bain & Company, Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP, and Apex Group Ltd and our wider group of pro bono partners.

We are proud to say that the Greater Share Foundation has selected AllChild as one of eight, high-impact NGOs to benefit from their recently closed $52 million Education Fund. The Fund will provide long-term sustainable support for organisations like ours that are focussed on providing education equity in underserved communities across the world. Strategic partnerships like this empower our work and are an example of our collective impact funding model, pooling resources to enable short-term impact and driving collaboration across sectors to help embed long-term resilience. AllChild’s inclusion in this fund empowers us to scale our impact and focus further on our mission of providing children and young people the opportunities they deserve to flourish. We are incredibly grateful for the long-lasting support this fund will provide us and want to extend a massive thank you to Greater Share for their commitment to education equity and our vision for change. Congratulations also to aeioTU, CAMFED - Campaign for Female Education, Kaivalya Education Foundation, KIPP Foundation, London Early Years Foundation, National Institute for Student Success and Teach For All in their selection. We're so proud to share the values and broader mission of these inspiring organisations!

Building emotional engagement with alumni begins well before graduation—it starts during their time as students. By fostering a sense of belonging and connection to their alma mater, we can shape future alumni who speak positively about their school, provide invaluable word-of-mouth promotion, and eventually become generous supporters. Creating memorable experiences, meaningful interactions with faculty and staff, and opportunities for involvement in campus life lay the foundation for a lifelong bond. As these students transition into alumni, they carry a deep sense of pride that naturally turns them into advocates, and in time, donors. The key is to view alumni engagement as a journey, starting from their first day on campus. A commitment to their experience now becomes the school's legacy tomorrow. #HigherEd #AlumniEngagement #StudentExperience #Fundraising #DonorRelations #InstitutionalAdvancement #ProudAlumni #LifelongLearning #HigherEducationLeadership #TransformationalLeadership #Applicant2Alumni

Feature Friday with Afro Queen, Varaidzo (Vee) Kativhu This week, we're shining a spotlight on her awesome project called Empowered by Vee. Empowered by Vee is a charity academic empowerment platform that helps and equips students with the skills, resources and confidence to thrive in higher education. Founded in 2018, Empowered by Vee emerged from Vee's understanding of her own experiences growing up in a low-income family. She realized the barriers and struggles many students face in pursuing higher education. Empowered by Vee is more than just a platform; it's a movement for change. It's about breaking down barriers, empowering individuals, and fostering a community of resilience and determination. It's made of a team of students who desire to see higher education accessible. Through their efforts, they're not just changing lives – they're changing the world, one student at a time. Join us next week Friday as we uncover more about our feature Friday Personality.

Another successful 21st Century skills workshop at the University of Technology Sydney for our Year 10 scholarship students. Today’s topic was critical-thinking and problem-solving. Our students were engaged in their learning and demonstrated their understanding of the skill through the activities. #astartinlife #charity #21stcenturyskills #softskills #careers #futureproofing #skills #criticalthinking #problemsolving #workshops

🤯 Weirdly enough, this post makes me very uncomfortable and I'm going to be authentically vulnerable about saying this up front. (If you want to know why there's the nervous emoji dude near the end 😅.) 📢As many know, I invest my time and energy in people and purpose, which is why I joined the Board of Bottom Line Chicago. 🎓For a decade, Bottom Line Chicago has been a beacon of hope for students, transforming their dreams of higher education into tangible realities. Whether guiding them to the right-fit college, demystifying the complexities of tuition and affordability, or providing support in unfamiliar environments, Bottom Line Chicago has been a steadfast companion on their educational journeys. 📈 As most of you know, I do my research, too. A Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) has found Bottom Line's impact on college enrollment, persistence, and graduation to be highly cost-effective, efficient, and scalable. 🌟Every student's dream is a seed of potential, and we are dedicated to nurturing and realizing that potential. Your investment in our future leaders is not just a donation; it's a belief in the power of education to transform lives. 😅 Not relevant info, but sharing is caring: I have never put myself out there to solicit donations or support; somehow, it made me uncomfortable to ask for things (even if for a great cause.) But I'm putting myself out there because 1) I'm too old for these weird hang-ups now, and 2) You never know what will happen unless you take the chance to lean into the uncomfortable. And the students Bottom Line Chicago serves are prime examples of choosing courage over comfort. 🙏🏼 Even if you can't make the event, please consider donating whatever you can towards this critical mission so that its impacts can continue another 10+ years. 🎉 https://lnkd.in/geqn4xHa #BottomLineChicago10Years #Celebrate #Donate #Possibilities #RiseUp #Fundraiser #HigherEducationJourney #Students #ChicagoRiseUpGala Bottom Line
