Fifteen years ago, the Rubicon Foundation discovered its purpose: to empower underprivileged communities. We recognized that, regardless of the magnitude of change one desires to bring about, there is no better place to start than promoting empowerment. Unfortunately, many disadvantaged individuals lack access to quality education and employment opportunities. They face numerous obstacles, including poverty, discrimination, and limited resources, which impede their ability to acquire the necessary skills and knowledge. Thus, a foundation focused on skill development can help bridge this gap and enable communities to attain financial independence. At Rubicon Foundation, we facilitate this achievement by offering access to top-tier training programs, hands-on skill-building opportunities, counselling, and continuous mentoring, and linking them with potential employers.
