Core Values
Equity
Financial disparities hinder BIPOC youth from marginalized identities from vulnerable backgrounds from being able to afford international & domestic travel experiences. Our goal is to cover the financial expenses for youth to participate. We believe, providing BIPOC youth from marginalized identities with a global education will provide them with a global lens, cultural context, systematic and social understanding of the world.
Access
BIPOC youth from marginalized identities from vulnerable backgrounds don’t always have access to international and domestic travel opportunities, or the financial resources because the opportunity is not local. We believe making our Cultural and Educational Journey's free will allow for more BIPOC youth to have ACCESS to these opportunities.
Health and Wellness
Whether PTSD or personal or environmental stress, BIPOC youth from marginalized identities from vulnerable backgrounds experience a high amount of stress, anxiety and depression which impacts how they see themselves, feel about themselves, and feel about their opportunities/life in general. We make it our responsibility to support youth holistically. We know, in order to maintain longevity, one's health must be stable and or balanced. We believe by focusing on getting the youth to prioritize their health, we will be able to decrease the levels of anxiety, stress and depression youth feel.
Education
Educational Advocacy Development, educating youth about inequality, inequities, systematic racism and social justice, prepares them to serve their community and beyond as advocates.
