Founded by entrepreneur Eddie Phanichkul in 2014, the Rockstar Art & Science Education Advancement Foundation is a future 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation based in San Diego, CA. Our immediate mission is to use music to educate underprivileged children. We’ll do this by creating hands-on experiences and performances for children to get them excited about music, and then ultimately science and arts and beyond. Our secondary mission is to create grant and scholarship programs designed to help youth and young adults afford tools for science, technology, art, and music, while offering low-cost or no-cost workshops designed to reinforce and educate youth and young adults on conceptual science, technology, art, and music.

Imagine facing torture and death for just five words—"I believe in Jesus Christ." This is a reality for more than 245 million Christians today. They often face physical violence towards themselves or loved ones—or lose homes and jobs because of their faith in Jesus. Their burdens are not meant to be carried alone. We want to see persecuted Christians experience fellowship with the Body of Christ as their needs are met—and find renewed strength to follow Christ. Help The Persecuted has been supporting suffering Christians with practical and spiritual help since 2011 and in 2018 was established as standalone charitable organization. We pray our efforts will empower the global Church to flourish not just in the Muslim world, but also in the Western world as we share in their suffering and bear their burdens.

The SiGMA Foundation, an extension of SiGMA Group's philanthropic efforts, has a global mandate to uplift marginalised individuals and communities.

We believe all children deserve the opportunity to thrive. Children in low-income housing developments with high density poverty are experiencing a widening "opportunity gap,"​ including a lack of trusted relationships, few involved adults with high educational achievement, and few-to-no extended learning opportunities. This opportunity gap is a root cause of why almost half of low-income children become low-income adults. The DREAM Program helps close this gap for over 800 of the most vulnerable children in our communities by providing deeply committed college student mentors, local and regional adventures, summer enrichment and overnight camp, support for postsecondary success, and an unwavering commitment to dreaming big. The core of our model is Village Mentoring, a high dosage, college campus-based one-on-one and team mentoring model. A parent of a DREAM participant provides an unsolicited window into the impact you could have as part of The DREAM Program: “Through DREAM, my kids were able to see their true place in the world and feel valued for who they were. DREAM has provided immeasurable opportunities for my children – opportunities that, as a low-income parent, I could never have provided.” Facebook: www.facebook.com/the.dream.program Instagram: www.instagram.com/the.dream.program Twitter: www.twitter.com/DREAMprogram

Over the last 30 years, we’ve raised millions to support students in Henrico County Public Schools (HCPS). We’re leading the way in showing how education foundations can play meaningful roles in the development and implementation of high-quality programming for our community’s children.

Our vision is: All schools are strong. All students are prepared. The heart of everything we do is focused on this vision.

Sun Community Health (SCH) is a National Non-Governmental organization that has been established in Myanmar since January 1, 2022. SCH envisions a future for Myanmar that is covered with a universal healthcare, and one where all Myanmar families have the power, opportunity, and ability to access the healthcare when they need without financial hardship. SCH has been engaging with a range of health care providers including private health providers and community-based health workers to deliver much-needed primary care to low income and vulnerable populations. The capacity of providers is upgraded with Continuing Professional Development (CPD) programs, and SCH distributes quality products with free or subsidized prices directly to the end users and through the providers. Regular monitoring, feedback collection and evaluation are conducted to ensure the services delivered by the participating providers are at quality standards. SCH has abundant experiences in implementing provider behavior change activities designed to achieve desired behaviors in service provision, and SCH has similarly implemented social, and behavior change campaigns designed to increase demand for available services.
