Leveraging our impact

Partnering with schools to bring our successful approach to more children.

Scholarships

In many parts of the Global South, access to quality education remains a distant dream for countless children. Barriers such as extreme poverty, lack of infrastructure, and societal expectations prevent many young people from realising their full potential. For girls, refugees, and those from disadvantaged backgrounds, these challenges are even greater. 

The Pestalozzi International Scholarships Programme was established to provide these children with opportunities that would otherwise be out of reach, ensuring they can pursue their education and change their futures.

Our Global Reach – our commitment

We will provide 1,000 scholarships over five years, focusing on kids aged 10-18.

The Pestalozzi Approach

Inspired by Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi, our education philosophy nurtures the

 whole child: intellectually, emotionally, and practically. We encourage creative thinking, broaden perspectives, and empower children to make informed life decisions.
