Our Story
Empowering Women
When the Ace of Good makes our delivery trips, instead of bringing backpacks from the United States, we source them locally through our women’s empowerment programs. We sponsor free seamstress job-skills training and then offer our graduates employment to sew our backpacks. Our program offers women an opportunity for financial independence, eases poverty in their community, and crates beautifully made backpacks for children in need.
Educating Children
The UN estimates that 120 million children are denied an education every year, many due to their inability to afford school supplies or fees. Education is the key to fighting poverty, hunger, disease, terrorism, global warming, you name it: almost every problem can be addressed through education.The students of the Tent School in Dharamsala India, at the Charan Khad slum, who show special interest and aptitude are invited to attend the Hostel School. Here they live in a boarding school setting yet only 15 minutes walk from the Charan Khad slum where their families live. For all of these students The Hostel School is the first time they have lived with electricity and running water, proper bathrooms, and proper meals, and have slept in proper beds. Ace of Good visited with these amazing students of the Hostel Schools and delivered a bckpack filled with School supplies to each and every child.
The Ace of Good is bringing philanthropic travel to a new level. In partnership with Go Philanthropic, we have created an externship program where college and graduate school students can get real life work experience while traveling the world to make deliveries to children in need.
Ace of Good offers a four-week intensive externship where you will not only learn about sustainable business practice and the one-for-one model, but also gain a first-hand look at our mission, participating in international backpack deliveries to our partner schools.
