TEACH FOR CHANGE
ABOUT
Teach for Change (TFC) is a pioneering initiative established by Catalyst for Change Vietnam, designed to narrow the educational disparities between rural and urban children in Vietnam while empowering women-led businesses. Our program operates at the intersection of education, entrepreneurship, and cultural exchange, aiming to create a transformative impact on both students and communities.
While our goal is to support students across Vietnam, we recognise our limitations and cannot establish centers in every province. Instead of becoming competitors to existing solutions, we partner with women-led language centers across Vietnam. By supporting these women, we indirectly support the students they educate. Through mentorship and the assistance of international volunteers, we equip these centers with the tools and resources necessary to enhance foreign language education while fostering leadership skills among female entrepreneurs. Part of the revenue generated from Teach for Change will go into operation for self sufficient financial help and also The Empowerment Plan.
JOIN OUR COMMUNITY
We are continuously looking for Vietnamese women-led language centers, mainly from remote and countryside areas, to partner with. Feel free to reach out to us to learn more about how to collaborate with us and what benefits this would bring to your business!
