Founded in 2015 by Leigh Bowman-Perks, a survivor of domestic violence and adversity, the charity was created to address gaps in support for vulnerable individuals, including limitations in government resources and a lack of long-term, holistic services. Leigh, now a successful business leader, international speaker, coach, philanthropist, and author, attributes her success to mentors and supportive businesses, and she is committed to giving back.</p><p><br></p><p>Our mission is to connect those from underserved communities with a global network of inspiring leaders to deliver world-class development through mentorship, resources, and life-changing career opportunities.</p>","author_name":"Jonathan Bowman-Perks"}
