The Mona Way

Our trailblazing approach is effective, efficient, and transformative.


To address the root causes of poverty, Mona Foundation partners long-term with grassroots organizations that educate children, empower women and girls, and foster ethics and service to develop change agents who uplift themselves, their families, and their communities.


Our approach is rooted in our core belief in the oneness of humanity and our conviction that every person, regardless of geography or economic standing, has the right to self-determination and the responsibility to fully participate in the development of their communities.  Learn more.

Since 1999, we have partnered with 41 grassroots organizations

in dozens of countries across four continents.

Learn about our current grassroots partners.

TOGETHER, we are breaking the cycle of poverty and driving

progress on gender equality.

 25 Years of Growth and Impact

Mona started out supporting 4 students in 2 countries. Since then, we have provided access to education for over 4 Million students through 41 grassroots partners in 23 countries.


Our goal is to reach 10 million students by 2030.

Our growth is accelerating as our grassroots partners build capacity to undertake more complex initiatives, expand their collaboration with civil society and governments, and scale their proven programs through existing institutions. Learn more. 

TOGETHER, we can bring the hope of education to every child.
