My Interests

Heroes:

we’re YOUNG we’re PASSIONATE we’re committed to working in partnership to fight the reality of POVERTYThe Oaktree Foundation is an entirely youth run aid and development organisation. We are driven by young people under the age of 26. We believe that education is the key to making lasting change. Oaktree is about young people standing up to take action. In a world where we can be reduced to token responses to poverty, we believe that young people can be leaders who don’t just talk about change, but create it. Our mission is to empower developing communities through education in a way that is sustainable. The action we take and the way we live out our mission is focussed on young people, education and sustainability.
Oaktree is a proud member of the Make Poverty History Coalition.
