Vision

Unfortunately, very few in this planet have easy access to necessary career development resources. For instance, some communities may lack college-level teachers who have the most "up-to date" knowledge (say, in the field of science & engineering). The goal of this project is to ensure that every individual on this planet has easy access to resources needed to carve out a great career.

As of today, one of the first goals is to apply our efforts for the betterment of projects at http://new.ashanet.org/ ("Asha for Education" endeavors to help the under-privileged children in India with education ). We are also advocating for affordable high speed internet access for all communities globally (since many educational/training resources are available online).
