It has been a privilege to see and be a part of Edge Institute as it has developed from a dream/vision to the outreach it has today. The staff is passionate about what they do. That passion is evident in their heart for education and their love for people. They are going and doing what few people are willing to do. Their HOPE for others is not just for their students but extends to the families of their students and their communities. Edge Institute also endeavors to help teachers broaden their impact of their students.
Edge Institute carefully uses their funds to fund projects that gives HOPE to those that are in desparate situations that we cannot even imagine.
I am confident that in the coming years their work will have made a lasting successful impact on many lives.
I had the amazing opportunity to volunteer with EDGE on their 2015 Target trip to Gambia and Senegal. Throughout the trip I had the honor of seeing EDGE in action. They are truly passionate about what they do, and they have such a heart for education and to love people well. I was also extremely impressed with how they handle their funds with the utmost care and integrity. I hold them in the highest esteem and would jump at the chance to work with them again in any capacity.
I have deeply appreciated the work of the EDGE Institute resulting in both my volunteering with and donating to them. Their Target trips are well-designed and locally-connected so that the benefit truly goes multiple ways as we all learn together. I am excited about possible chances to work with them again in the future!
I have been involved with both technical and social organizations progressing from an idea or concept into mature, effective institutions serving a composite of beneficiaries. I see in EDGE and its endeavors the same qualities of vision, determination, diligence, professionalism and compassion that many other successful organizations have. Achievements will be both challenging and rewarding and I look forward to continuing to be a contributor.
" Hope for miles" really gives the hope for miles, for children who are lost, let`s bring the hope for them.
Thanks for you

Thank you for the kind words, Mohammad! And thank you also for your hard work in the same sphere! We must stand together for the sake of the kids!
I appreciate the genuineness and passionate heart of this nonprofit. They are seeking to reach deep into every life they touch and make a lasting impact on the mind and soul. Consider helping these dear people reach out and touch the broken and hurting.

Thank you so much!
I love what Edge Institute is doing. 'Hope for miles' indeed.
I really appreciate that they have set out to meet the needs of the communities they serve rather than adhering to a fixed model.
Their work in Northern Iraq has been developed based on feedback of their students. They've collaborated with other organizations to meet needs and share their resources (including allowing their building space to be used by others) taken a holistic approach to involve supporting not just their young students but their families and community as a whole (including by providing employment to locals people) and viewing health education/emotional wellbeing support as complementary to the academic side of education.
I'm very pleased to continue to support their work.

Thank you so much for your support!
I had the opportunity to join the Target trip to West Africa in 2015. What an amazing opportunity. Everything was done professionally and the students and teachers learned so much. I hope Edge Institute will make many more of these trips so that they can be a great encouragement to those who may not have the educational opportunities that we often take for granted. I was able to experience first hand the impact that Edge has around the world.

Thank you! Your work with EDGE helped make a difference this year, and we are so thankful!
We are excited to be partnered with the Edge Institute as part of our strategy of seeing needs met in the Middle East. Edge Institute is accomplishing the work that it was created to do. They are transparent and accountable for both their hands-on work and their finances.
