Global Voices, Local Impact

If it “takes a village” to raise a child, it certainly takes one to operate a successful social enterprise like Pangea. From hosting our yearly gala in Chicago to delivering literacy programs in Uganda, our organization coordinates globally to create a world in which everyone can read. While our community of changemakers is composed of individuals who live around the world, much of our work often focuses on creating impact in local communities. For this year’s virtual fundraiser, we want to introduce you to our global community of changemakers and demonstrate how we work together to foster a passion for reading in every child we encounter.

Our 2024 Virtual Fundraiser is called “Global Voices, Local Impact” and via this campaign, we hope to educate our global network on how various Pangea teams from disparate locations collaborate to expand opportunities for literacy for the Imvepi Refugee Settlement of Uganda. Every dollar that we raise during this campaign will directly contribute to our efforts in Imvepi to expand the community’s access to both education and technology. Each week, we will spotlight a different group within Pangea that contributes to our work in Uganda. Along the way, you’ll be invited to become one of our global voices that can create local impact by donating to the fundraiser. No matter the physical distance that separates us, Pangea is full of a diverse group of dreamers, strategists, innovators, and creators that are united in our common goal: to build a 100% literate world by 2050.
