Partnerships For Change (PFC)

These are the six primary programs and projects of Partnerships For Change in our fiscal year July 2022 to June 2023.1. Create collaborations and build networks trust through our Strategic Development Center for Trim-Tab Solutions for our most pressing Global Challenges. PFC is an operating foundation that networks businesses, non-governmental organizations, institutional and governmental entities to achieve climate equity and justice. We incorporate leading edge technologies that are nature positive and protect and regenerate natural ecosystems. 2. Advance the mission of Pope Francis Vatican and his written proclamation in Laudato Si to hear and respond to the cry of the poor and the earth in our common home. Pope Francis, and his chief advisor on environment and poverty, Father Josh Kureetadam and Cardinal Turkson are spiritual entrepreneurs spearheading the project. Spiritual entrepreneurs naturally engender trust in communities providing a path to success. We have developed a trusted interfaith network of spiritual" entrepreneurs throughout Asia, India, the Americas and Africa. We are focusing on the continent of Africa because we have been granted access to property owned in communities governed by the Bishops Dioceses throughout the 54 countries of Africa. We are assessing these properties to benefit these underserved communities with regenerative agriculture, forestry, water management, and local community economic development. The Earth our Common Home Fund will have a floor of $100 million to deploy into the identified properties in Africa. (Budget to maximize impact: $185 million)3. Innovate the creation and distribution of healthy food to those in great need and through our health care facilities under construction in Liberia and India. Food security and emotional wellbeing are key tenants of all our programs. One project we created in India feeds over 15000 a day in a slum area of India. - where the people lack access to food that has been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. We are now designing training programs to provide financial self-reliance for girls and women. Nutrition specific for Maternal Fetal Health and education are currently in development. Our groundbreaking work has been featured at the United Nations in October 2022 and continues to be showcased at WEF and African Union. Impact of the project: a, A protein rich nutritional supplement called Saisure was created and distributed to slums during COVID with Blendhub. b. Daily adults and children in acute need of nutritious food daily in a poor section of Bangalore. They were cut off from food supplies due to imposed Covid-19 restrictions4. Regenerate local economic and environmental well-being with equity and justice for all is the driving force of our projects in Africa with the African Union. PFCs Team is advising the Great Green Wall (GGW) - a band of green stretching from West Africa (Senegal) to East Africa (Djibouti) - that halts desertification and the need for migration for the people that live along the GGW. We are developing ways to raise funds from large funders like Sovereign Wealth Funds and large funders needed to grow the GGW.(Budget to maximize impact for Development of 10 Year Strategic Plan for expanded African underserved nations (Phase I) and Implementation (Phase II) with key stakeholders in Africa, United States, and International institutions with Finance capacity (e.g. Sovereign Wealth Funds). (Budget to maximize input and impact $45 million)5. PFC rapidly responded in 2021 and continued in 2022 to 2023 to rescue and resettle people in imminent danger due to the change in the Afghanistan government and food scarcity. The abrupt departure of the United States from Afghanistan caused the greatest humanitarian crisis of the 21st Century. As a result, PFC established an A-Team to help numerous families and hundreds of Afghanis survive in their homeland until their departure to safe refuge and then resettlement to welcoming countries, including the United States. The team covers the life supply-chain providing safety in Afghanistan with housing and food and securing evacuation by land and air to a safe intermediary country. Beyond evacuation, we support getting these people resettled with the required documentation and self-reliant revenue-generating skills in their new country. addressing any of these areas can cost innocent people their lives and increases the funding needed to perform successfully in every phase of the life supply-chain. (Budget estimated for maximum impact: $25 million)6. Inform people with Media - documentaries and social media - to inspire change that generates a prosperous economy, resilient environment and social equity and justice for all. Media and the projects above fulfill our theory of change which we call Reflexive Development. The media amplifies the programs we operate and vice versa - to generate conscience and consciousness to make change. These are a few of the documentaries we are producing along with a film fund underwrite the documentaries: Being Michele - Revealing the true story of discrimination against people with physical and mental handicaps specifically in our prison system Honored but Broken - the system whereby those that bring us health - our first responders are not provided and do not receive health care. 60 Minutes team.Recent Achievements PFC rapidly responded in 2021 and continued 2022 to an unprecedented number of humanitarian and environmental emergencies. The most recent achievements of Partnerships For Change (PFC) include: 1. Recruited a team of high level former U.S. State Department and intelligence officers to provide transport, safe-housing, food and medical aid to those facing eminent danger from the Taliban. 2. Provided healthy food for 15000 slum dwellers/per day in Bangalore, India during COVID-19 lockdown. PFC is completing construction on a free hospital in Bangalore India to serve rural villages nutritious food and free healthcare. 3. Rebuilt a building and van swept away by a flash flood at our orphanage and a refuge for differently abled young women. 4. Continued support for long term projects: a. Established Angaza Tree Company, Ltd., a Kenyan social enterprise to both harvest and conserve Baobab trees, employ local women and provide financial and food security. This effort will importantly provide regenerative forestry and protect the ecosystem. We intend to use the Baobab model for the African Union to help grow the African Great Green Wall (GGW). PFC continues to support long term projects for womens empowerment, education and health care in India, Kenya, Benin and Liberia, Africa and the United States. Together, all of these efforts require more financial support to help these desperate and deserving individuals. We ask for urgently needed support and funds.
