Story

I'm so please to be running for EMPower.... trust me it is going to be painful because I haven't had the chance to prepare.  I appreciate your contribution, as you know it will end up 100 % invested on the ground... helping young people in emerging countries.... from Latin America, to Africa , Eastern Europe and Asia.... please visit EMPower web site .... it is such a beautiful cause, and it really differentiates from major charities in 2 ways : first, 100 % of your donations reach the ground..(because all costs are covered by the "underwriters" ,  and 2nd  EMPower has a human size , you can see and control how money and work is deployed. You can see the effect and power of every penny. In times of crisis , these are the people that need the most support. 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer.

So please dig deep and donate now.

EMpower - The Emerging Markets Foundation is a not-for-profit organization that ties the resources of Emerging Markets (EM) professionals world-wide with the vitality of community-based social sector initiatives in developing countries. Founded in 2000 by financial professionals from the emerging markets community who were "doing well" and also wanted to "do good", EMpower was created to make grants to local organizations working to improve the lives of marginalized youth in EM countries, and act as a bridge between those with resources and those who need resources. EMpower UK was formed in 2007 out of the interest of emerging markets professionals, from London and Continental Europe, to deploy resources in support of marginalized communities in EM countries. Since then, EMpower UK has formed an Underwriting Group and a Board made up of prominent members of the EM community in London and throughout Europe and Russia. EMpower provides funding and some technical support to community-based organizations in EM countries that are working to improve the lives of young people. www.empowerweb.org
