About

Our Story

An avid traveler, I have been forever changed by the children I have met. They are so excited to learn, despite the fact that they do not have even the most basic school supplies. In some of the most impoverished regions I have been to, children will often ask for a pen over something to eat, even when their bellies are empty.

But these children can only get an education if their families have the means to pay for it. I have seen the passion mothers have, not only to send their children to school, but to find a way to provide for their families and become leaders in their communities.

Briya partners with organizations like Marshall Direct Fund and Women's Partnership Market to support programs that are dramatically improving the lives of women and children, both economically and scholastically. We hope you will join us on our journery to ensure a future for them in which they will thrive.
