For centuries, Africa and underserved communities in the Americas have been unable to reach their potential and play a stronger role in the global community due to systemic challenges, such as lack of access to quality education and technology. At Phelps Stokes, we know from a century of direct experience that visionary leaders with big ideas can complement government and private sector efforts to address these issues, building bridges of international, intercultural and interracial understanding and effectively setting the stage for lasting social change.
Phelps Stokes is the only organization exclusively focused on strengthening these communities with a proven model that finds and nurtures bold thinking, connects visionary leaders with needed resources and inspires new initiatives and institutions that go on to transform local communities
