There’s a nice quote by motivational speaker Les Brown that says: “help others achieve their dreams and you will achieve yours”; well… it kind of goes both ways, right? 🙂
We’ve been blessed 🙏 with a growing platform; and we’re thrilled that we can now use our platform to help pave the way for positive change in the lives of others - which is the ultimate recipe to a happy life, I’d say.
What's in here?
The PM72 Summit: what it is, why we're doing it, who's in on it, and why you should be excited! 🤩
What is the PM72 Summit?

The Summit is organized by Jexo, in partnership with Resolution and Old Street Solutions, and will take place on the 13, 14 and 15th of June.

We rise by lifting others - Malala Fund
Our main goal for the PM72 Summit is to raise as many donations as possible for the Malala Fund, a platform that pushes for a more equal world where all girls can go to school. It’s only fair that these young girls get the opportunity to shape their own existence.

How does Malala Fund help girls succeed?
The team at Malala Fund focuses on 4 key ingredients:
- They champion every girl’s right to 12 years of free, quality education
- They invest in local education activists, in regions where most girls miss out
- They advocate to hold leaders accountable for resources and policy changes
- They amplify girls’ voices and share stories through their publications

How can I donate to the Malala Fund?
All donations amassed will go to the Malala fund, so we can help create a better life for the girls; what we’re offering in return is free and unique project management content you’ll find nowhere else!

What do featured donors get in terms of +?
