Founder Bio
My name is Lamisa Hassan, and I’m a high school student from the Bronx. I began tutoring elementary school students in my community in the 7th grade. Two years ago, I began donating the earnings to the Hajji Yeasin Ali Foundation, an organization helping families in Bangladesh. In my first summer alone, I raised $500. BTI has become a way for me to stay connected to my background while supporting students both here in the Bronx and abroad. I hope to continue growing this project and creating accessible learning opportunities for many students.
BTI is dedicated to empowering young learners and creating a bridge between local and global impact.
We aim to:
Provide individualized academic support to elementary school students
Build students’ confidence in core subjects such as math, reading, and science
Donate all proceeds to support underprivileged families in Bangladesh
