CONSULTING

 

You're moved to do good in this world. 

You have the resources to support that work. 

You value giving in a way that feels good for ALL.

We all want to step up, do more, and make a difference, right? But here's the thing  sometimes we end up stuck...because we're scared of messing up. Or getting out of our comfort zones.  And this purpose-driven paralysis isn't helping anyone.

I'm here to support you or your organization on your path to values-aligned processes, community-centered action plans and development the way it should be - with dignity.

NON-PROFIT

 

Leah is the President of Friends of Kisimani School, a registered 501(c)3 non-profit that supports Kisimani School, which she co-founded in Arusha, Tanzania in 2011.

The community in Mkonoo village had been advocating for 5 years for a primary school to be built on their land, so the youngest children would not have to walk 7-11 kilometers to the nearest public school. With the grassroots support of their community leaders, plus the generous support of many friends in the United States, the first four classrooms were built in partnership with Build African Schools.
