One full-time role in Warsaw supports 5 branches and reaches 1,000 students a year.
We do not pay for courses. Our partners donate those. What we need funded is the work of finding the students who need them and getting the courses into their hands.
Why this costs so little per student
Because the expensive part is donated, and the part we pay for scales.

The full programme
The full annual programme — two roles, 10 branches, around 2,000 students
Employee mentoring
Your people give a few hours a month to students who have never met anyone doing their job. For a student deciding whether university is for them, that conversation does something money cannot. We handle matching, scheduling, and safeguarding.
