Provide literacy services
Provide literacy services to underprivileged kids, youth, women and single mothers in US and across the globe. These include weekly English and STEM classes at no cost. Our mission is to bridge the gap in opportunity for those who have been marginalized, by offering free literacy services, primarily English lessons. By providing them with essential language skills, we give them the tools to overcome barriers and compete on equal footing, opening doors to new opportunities and brighter futures. As of now we are operating in 7 countries, and actively making a difference in the lives of over 100 kids.
Empower Eats : Rescuing Food, Restoring Dignity
Local Impact Through Technology & Redistribution
Every day, perfectly good catered meals go to waste, not due to quality but simply because there’s no system in place to redirect them to where they’re needed. That’s where EmpowerEats steps in.
Through our newly developed app, Bridge 2 Meal, we are creating a streamlined solution that connects local catering services, restaurants, and event hosts with shelters, food banks, and underserved families in their area.

Reducing food waste while fighting local hunger
By turning leftovers into lifesaving meals, EmpowerEats reflects our belief that no meal should be wasted when so many go without. We are proud to partner with catering companies, local nonprofits, and food justice advocates to ensure food reaches those who need it most—with dignity, efficiency, and care.
“This isn’t just about reducing waste. It’s about building a system of care—where surplus becomes support.”

PlateFul: Global Meals for Learning
While EmpowerEats addresses hunger locally, PlateFul extends our impact globally. Through this initiative, we aim to fund and sponsor regular meals for the students and families in our international education and literacy programs. These communities are often not only lacking educational access, but also suffering from chronic food insecurity.

Supporting whole families, not just students
Directly tied to our education and literacy sessions
Partnered with trusted local organizations and volunteers
When children are nourished, they learn better, grow stronger, and build confidence. PlateFul ensures that education doesn’t happen on an empty stomach, and every student we support has the fuel they need to succeed—both in the classroom and at home.
