MY PASSION PROJECT
I have been blessed and found myself searching for a special project to make a great impact in others lives. My business partner Dianah is from Indonesia and told me the story about how how her sister Irene Widyati had started the Jabal 165 house, which a free boarding schoool in Bangdung, Indonesia. The House was started in 2006 and it was donated and coordinated daily by Ms.Widyati for children where she provides education, food, and shelter for these students solely based on donations. This is amazing because in Indonesia education is not free and many parents can not afford to send their children to school, so she is bettering the lives of these children and creating opportunities for them they would have not otherwise had!
Currently she has 160 kids with ages ranging from elementary through high school. During my last visit to Indonesia I went to the Jabal 165 house to meet Irene, the founder of this project and it changed my life! I met some of the students and toured the dorm style campus, as well as had lunch with them. I bought the students lunch that day as a thank you for their hospitality. One girl in particular touched my heart because she said “please do not forget us”. It was inspiring and knew I wanted to choose this as one of my give back missions. The faith, hope, and joy that I experienced at the school was humbling. I decided on a new initiative for myself is to feed one million kids by 2025. By supporting my Women in Business Podcast, you too are helping me reach my goal!
Why is it so important to give back to your community?
Why is it so important to find a cause you love and volunteer your time? Spending time enriching your community is a great way to broaden your perceptions of the world. By immersing yourself in a community and surrounding yourself with people who are dedicated to bettering the world, you can learn so much about how the world works. You gain a unique sense of purpose by serving those around you, one which often manifests in other areas of your life.
Our Goals
We donate 10% of every commission to local charities.
Our Dream Big goals are multi-layered : We will encourage the entities involved in our transactions to GIVE BACK, and we are trying to show all local business people in our community that they can include some sort of GIVE BACK theme in their daily fabric; some might be through donations, in kind, volunteerism, or simply just shedding light on some organizations that are in need locally. Once the Athens area community can show that Giving Back is something that differentiates a business in a positive way, we hope to go on the road and show leaders in other communities that this can be done!
