So amazing to see connections between our alumni from around the world -- we are so proud to be a part of your journey! ❤️
Thanks to the Gratitude Network, the local team at our flagship Learning & Leadership Center in Kafue, Zambia -- the Amos Youth Centre -- engaged the girls and boys in a Sport for Peace lesson plan from another Gratitude Fellow organization, Generations For Peace, to commemorate the International Day of Peace. #PeaceDay is celebrated around the world each year on September 21st. The Sport For Peace curriculum demonstrates how sport-based games can be used with youth to ensure inclusion, foster cooperation, build trust, and nurture responsibility. Thank you Gratitude Network and Generations of Peace for sharing such a FUN resource for our youth!

🌟 10 YEARS: BEAT THE ODDS! Kytabu Did you know only 50% of nonprofits succeed after their first year? And 30% cease to exist after a decade? ❗ 🚀 We are so proud of our 2014 Fellows who BEAT THE ODDS! Today we celebrate Tonee Ndungu’s Kytabu, which, one full decade since their fellowship with Gratitude Network, has not only survived, but thrived! Kytabu began with a revolutionary concept: “an Android application for phones and tablets that enabled teachers and students to rent curriculum textbooks using mobile money,” a model that “created the opportunity for content distribution” where low-income communities across Kenya had the opportunity to access quality learning resources! 🇰🇪 📚 In the past ten years, Kytabu has grown to now offer “a complete Education suite that includes a school management system tied to a teachers’, parents’ and students’ mobile application,” founded on principles of affordability, relevance, accessibility, and convenience! 💻 🤝 Kytabu has collaborated with incredible organizations, including backing from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and Mastercard Foundation, as well as features on CNN and The Economist! Congratulations, Tonee Ndungu and Kytabu! You beat the odds! #gratitudenetwork #nonprofit #withgratitude #mentoringprogram #nonprofitorganization #nonprofitforchildren #nonprofitnetworking #nonprofitstories

🌟 10 YEARS: BEAT THE ODDS! Zaya Learning Labs Did you know only 50% of nonprofits succeed after their first year? And 30% cease to exist after a decade? ❗ 🚀 We are so proud of our 2014 Fellows who #BEATTHEODDS! A full decade since their fellowship with Gratitude Network, and Neil Dsouza’s Zaya Learning Labs has not only survived, but thrived in the past ten years! From “six years of developing cutting-edge educational products,” Zaya has evolved to an even broader impact: “empowering learning processes for teachers, students, companies, administrators and government bodies… [they] aim to make lasting improvements to existing systems of learning and continue to help children in remote regions access high-quality learning tools.” 💻 📚 Zaya's impact has provided learning tools and bridged the education gap for over 70 schools, 3,600 children, in 11 locations. Congratulations, Neil D’Souza and Zaya! You beat the odds! 🌟 #gratitudenetwork #nonprofit #withgratitude #mentoringprogram #nonprofitorganization #nonprofitforchildren #nonprofitnetworking #nonprofitstories
