Who are we ?
LEAD LIKE A GIRL
The Beast Foundation has been heavily focused on education for underprivileged young people and harnessing sports talent since its founding in 2020.
The Beast Foundation and the Partners shared their common vision to impact society by investing in girls’ education.
Through their clients and network of investors – fully support this very special program impacting the future of our girl’s place and responsibilities in society.
Through mentorship, scholarships, inspiring female patrons, and alumni network,
our aim is to offer support, training and education to young girls and build them up into fierce future leaders that will in turn help the next generation of young girls forge their own path.
Why we invested in the girls.
Lead Like a Girl is a Leadership & Education program for teenage girls from the age of 13. Without adequate support girls in vulnerable conditions are less likely to attend school, leading to vulnerability to domestic violence, early marriage, and lower income.
Girls receive little or no funding to pursue their dreams, without partners who will come alongside to help them change their world – they have few people who believe in their unique ability to lead.
The Beast Foundation, in partnership with Elyseum, will champion the program for girls in five key activity pillars:
