PLEASE ALLOW US TO INTRODUCE OURSELVES?
Stichting Education Runway -founded in February 2011- is a private Dutch initiative and was born form the idea that better education leads to enhanced chances to finding paid labour. This subsequently leads to a better development of the individuals and the environment in which these individuals live.
Well trained people can act as an example for their community and inspire and stimulate others to also find and take these chances.
Our Mission
Stichting Education Runway’s mission is to grant access to education to less privileged people in developing countries. The foundation actively supports people with sustainable solutions through the financing of reliable and, preferably, local organizations.
Our Vision
Education is the link between the haves and the have-nots.
By positioning people at the start of the runway and by giving them ample educational tailwind, we not only increase the self-supportiveness of the individual but also that of his or her community.
Our core values include;
- Involvement
- Sustainability
- Respect
- Transparency
The founders of Education Runway realize very well that being born in the western world brings
about advantages, and they love to share their “wealth” with those for whom the right to education is
not evident. By raising funds, Education Runway can support smaller education initiatives in
developing countries. In our Policy Paper 2022-2025 you can read more about our motives.
