CSR – Sisterhood Foundation
Above & Beyond is committed to CSR through the charity foundation, Sisterhood, which empowers girls and women in the developing world.
The Sisterhood Foundation was personally established in 2010 by Tine Willumsen, to support women and girls, enabling their education, empowerment and independence.
Let’s join forces and provide these women and girls with COURAGE, CARE, CHOICES and CHANGE.
The focus for Sisterhood Foundation projects is currently in the Chennai province of India, where the charity supports young girls and women, who live under very challenging circumstances.
The charity’s projects support in many ways, from micro-financing to educational to entrepreneurial funding.
Through scholarships, English classes, and even a mobile tech classroom young women are given additional opportunities for their future.
