OUR MISSIONTo transform individuals, families and

lasting wellbeing.
ABOUT US:The Work
Venture 2 Impact has strategically focused itself
around three E’s: Education, Empowerment,
and Economic Development.
We believe that through initiatives in these three areas, we are able to bring
individuals out of poverty and into lasting wellbeing. While our initiatives
within each category ebb and flow based on local needs, solutions, and opportunities, these pillars are the
strong foundation to all the work that Venture 2 Impact does.
