The Resolution Project is an outstanding non-profit supporting global youth social entrepreneurship. I volunteer with Resolution via the Guide program. The Guide program pairs young professionals/volunteers with Resolution Fellows who are leading a vetted social venture of their own creation. The Guides collaborate with Fellows to ensure the success of the social venture and provide support through mentorship and to Resolution's vast resources. Not only is the Resolution Project team thoroughly professional and well-organized, but they are a fantastic team that truly believes in their mission to close global development gaps via youth entrepreneurship.

Resolution was the first to invest in my vision as a young social entrepreneur. They were the first to believe in the vision of an ambitious young 19 year old who wanted to generate better systems for youth participation in the decision-making process of communities around the Philippines.

Suffice to say, without Resolution's unending support, I would not be where I am today.

I am a Resolution Project Fellow since 2014. I travelled to Boston to attend Harvard National Model United Nations and compete for Social Venture Challenge. The fellowship that I received not only changed me as a social entrepreneurs but also impacted 2100+ lives of underprivileged women artisans and their families.

Resolution project helped me to develop the foundation of social venture TigerBow, created opportunities with education, expert knowledge and connected organisation to continue impacting in my local community.

I never believed one day I will able to study in USA, speak at TEDx and my work will be celebrated throughout the north America. All these possible for only Resolution Project.

During the time of Covid19 both Resolution and I supported the U.S Embassy Dhaka to help conduct many webinars on productivity, employability and social entrepreneurship. These webinars impacted hundred of thousands young professionals and entrepreneurs to continue their livelihoods.

Resolution also helped me to launch my second social venture where we are educating school students of Bangladesh about growth mindsets, leadership and entrepreneurship to become social change makers.

I am always grateful to Resolution, George Tsiatis, all the mentors and staff members for supporting a young entrepreneur like me to live his dream to develop sustainable community.

Resolution Project is one of a kind organization. I have been funded by other organizations in the past and currently but for Resolution it is more than the funding. I would clearly say Resolution is a family without any doubt I am proud to be part of the beneficiary. I have two mentors who I have been assigned to since 2019. The Director Mr. George Tsiatis is a good friend of mine, my brother and mentor. If there is someone that I share with everything of mine is George. He has always offered me solution to the challenges that I am facing.

Resolution Project is one of the best communities I never seen before. I am Irène Bossavi, Resolution fellow through the TOP FARM project, which writing took several nights and several days for my colleague Roger and me. Great was our joy when we competed successfully. Thanks to the fellowship that we have thus won, we are sure that we will impact a great world. We currently have a perfect entrepreneurial framework because Resolution Project is ready to help us in everything. Seed funding, mentors, training and plenty of opportunity !!!

The Resolution project is an incredible community. I have had a great experience working with each and everyone. The opportunities presented by this organization to me as an individual are immeasurable. But what’s stunning is the change this dedicated group of selfless individuals helps us as young leaders to spread in our own communities. Words can’t express how grateful I am as a change maker who has been mentored, supported and also given a platform to grow and empower fellow youths. The best way to explain my experience is to share my favorite quote; “Don’t be scared to dream but dreaming is less than 1%, the 99% is about translating your dream into action”. The Resolution project puts in 100% to support each of their fellows turn their dreams into action. And that is a wonderful experience.

In short - The Resolution Project is absolutely incredible! It's been a little more than a year since I joined Resolution as a Guide, but I am already overwhelmed with the work Resolution has been doing in this short span. Resolution is not only giving opportunities to young people to create impacts in their communities but also working constantly to amplify their efforts. And the entire community is wonderful - everyone from fellows, guides, and executive team - everyone cares for each other and genuinely looking to support one another! Glad to be a part of this community!

The Resolution Project brilliantly engages and supports young social and capital entrepreneurs across the globe. Ferreting out the best candidates (Fellows) and coaches/mentors (Guides) may be The Resolution Project's best service. They act like a match-maker bringing Fellows and Guides together! My partner Guide, Todd Mann of Atlanta and I met through The Resolution Project and were engaged with Daniel Deng of Peace Power South Sudan. The three of us have gotten along wonderfully, we've become lifelong friends and we expect to see Daniel achieve his dream...to bring peace to South Sudan!

The Resolution Project is a dynamic leadership program for Fellows that have high interest in community projects. The design of this program allows the students to engage with their mentors in the narrow topics of business selected by the Fellow. Fellows are coached to lead and the Guides (Advisors) support as wisdom brokers.

I'm a relatively new guide with Resolution Project, but it really doesn't take long to see the impact that is happening within this organization. First and foremost, every staff member that is a part of Resolution is amazing. They are incredibly friendly, accommodating, and you can just feel their passion from the very first time you talk to them. It was very refreshing to meet new people that truly love and believe in what they do, and I tip my hat to Resolution for finding great people like them. As far as the actual guide program, it's really something special. You get the opportunity to assist bright young people pursue their dreams of solving the world's problems. The fellows are incredibly bright, but also very appreciative of the help you provide them. While they may know WAY more than you about their field, they also seek your help in areas they aren't as strong it. I have greatly enjoyed my experience with Resolution so far, and look forward to being a part of the program moving forward.

The organisation, it's people and their values enable young leaders from around the world to realise their ambitions by equipping them with resources, trust and responsibility - and I am no exception! The Resolution Fellowship believed in my venture early on, unwaveringly supported the endeavour and remains invested in my journey. It gave me the courage to quit a corporate career and take a leap of faith in completely immersing in a socially conscious path. The friends I've made, networks I've created and capabilities I've built are incredible and I'm proud to associate myself with the Resolution Project.

Becoming a Resolution fellow back in 2013 to launch my venture, Project Reach was truly transformative. The direction of my Resolution Guides, and the resources that Resolution provided every step of the way instilled in me the belief that creating a positive impact early on in life was not only possible but also necessary. Project Reach started as a venture using technology solutions to help infants and new mothers in rural India access vital vaccines on time and this experience became a catalyst for me to transition to a career in international development. Resolution’s backing gave impetus to my dreams and helped me crystalize what would have remained in my thoughts. Looking back, I realize that Resolution helped me not only with the venture but also with my own evolution into a person who is supportive of more and more young people taking action to positively impact their communities.

I have been a Resolution Fellow since May 2014 and it has been an experience that has truly changed my life. My venture was focused on using beekeeping to offer supplemental income and entrepreneurial training for refugee women. The support for fellows from the team, guides and mentors is incredible: from the challenges that we faced to the life-decisions we were in the midst of making- Resolution was there every step of the way. They also connected us with the most inspiring young leaders around the world who are working hard every single day to change their world for the better and each one of the fellows provides not only an inspiration, but also a friend who can help encourage your own ideas as you work on your venture and development of leadership skills. Resolutions support and work exceeds expectations!

I am a guide for the Resolution Project as well as supported Resolution in reviewing future fellows. As a guide I help mentor entrepreneurs with their socially responsible ventures. For example the fellow I currently guide has setup an program in which he employs rural artisans to create leather goods for commercial and corporations, as well as provides workshops in support of educating disadvantaged children. Through the sale of the products he is able to provide a steady salary to the artisans and the profit can be distributed to the communities to enrich education for the children. There are many other examples of these selfless acts that other fellows provide to make the the world a better place. For me the experience has been tremendous. The passion of the Resolution team along with the experienced guides, and amazing fellows is what makes this nonprofit a force.

This is one of the best charity because the Resolution not only give you the grant also give you support by providing mentors who help you with the development of the project and also with your professional life. Another very important thing that makes The Resolution unique is the opportunities to the fellows such us leadership, education etc. in conclusion this organization is amazing.

Resolution Project is a community of a kind! It believes and invests in young people of courage who dare to do something to address challenges in communities across the world. Through its social venture challenges, the Resolution Project identifies young people of courage, and gives them support with guidance and mentorship. I know amazing young people in the fellowship program who have helped communities defeat cholera by providing access to clean water, taught others skills to improve their income, and more. This organisation not only gives young people an opportunity to serve but also prepares them for bolder challenges ahead in their careers and leadership journeys.

I have yet to work with another organization so committed to the goals that it sets for itself. The Resolution Project's "fellows first" model speaks volumes. Investing time and resources into early stage entrepreneurs and ideas is a feat that very few other organizations have attempted to undertake, and even fewer have executed with as much heart and energy as the Resolution Project has. The entire team is focused on a culture of positive collaboration and giving that inspires the young entrepreneurs that they help to continue pursuing the high goals that they set for themselves.

The Resolution Project is one of the best champions for young, socially-minded individuals. They encourage, provide support and even fund the seemingly crazy, idealistic ideas of today's youth. However, with their backing, those ideas are no longer crazy or idealistic, because they are actually happening and creating positive change. That is what happened with my venture. I was a college student when I came up with an idea that I hoped would change the world. Everyone I knew applauded the concept, but no one put forth any resources that would turn that small dream into a reality. No one, until Resolution. I received $4,000 in start-up funding from Resolution, two fabulous mentors (who I speak with at least monthly) and a network of like-minded peers who continue to inspire me everyday. Every chance I get, I encourage other young, budding social entrepreneurs to apply to be a part of The Resolution Project. The idea is simple, but the results are extraordinary.

I could speak volumes of praise about the Resolution Project. However, in my experience what truly sets this organization apart is three things: How much they care, the thoroughness with they measure impact and evaluate, and finally the resources they are able to provide their fellows. This is truly an organization to creating long-term social change and they have found a powerful and sustainable way to do so by investing young socially responsible leaders and ensuring they have the opportunity to tackle global challenges and solve the worlds biggest problems.

I hope to see Resolution continuing to expand, developing young leaders, and creating positive and sustainable change throughout the world.

I have been involved with Resolution for over a year, and it seems that every few months, my enthusiasm causes me to increase my involvement even further. The Resolution Project connects talented youth with skilled mentors in the service of supporting social ventures and the individuals that launch them. I am constantly impressed by the fellows themselves, and thrilled to have the opportunity to support their professional growth; in the absence of their fellowship, many fellows would not have access to the advisement or resources that Resolution makes available. For example, I advise fellows that live in Caracas, Venezuela. Upcoming changes, such as the implementation of a social venture curriculum, will only strengthen the value of a Resolution fellowship, both to fellows and the populations that their ventures serve.

I've been a member of The Resolution Project for over two years and I cannot think of a better way to contribute my free time and energy than to serve this purposeful, impactful and consistently impressive organization. The Resolution Project seeks to empower young individuals who have demonstrated leadership qualities and possess a thirst for social entrepreneurship. I've enjoyed the personal satisfaction of mentoring a few of these talented young leaders in the implementation of their ventures. I can say with certainty that I have benefitted a great deal from my interaction with these impressive, entrepreneurial minded young folks as well as the connections I've established with all of the other wonderful volunteers within the organization. One of many proud moments I've experienced in my work with The Resolution Project was when a venture I advised sucessfully placed a number of unemployed semi-skilled workers in jobs with a partner employer. An opportunity these semi-skilled workers would not have had without the initiative and work of Resolution Project Fellows.

The Resolution Project has seen tremendous growth in its reach and impact since we began several years ago. We started with the idea of activating young leaders at youth summits through social enterprise; we saw a hunger in undergrads to take action and begin changing the world. Through Resolution Fellowships that now span the globe, we have been building a community of socially-responsible young leaders ready to take on social challenges through their current projects, and, at least as importantly, throughout their lives and their careers. Our impressive and wide-reaching volunteer corps of mentors and skilled professionals have been a critical part of Resolution's growth and ability to serve our Fellows. Our Team's endless generosity (in the forms of time, talent and treasure) is a source of world-class resources for the organization and for our Fellows, and it allows so many more of our donors' dollars to go directly to our Fellowship program. In short, it is a privilege to work with our Fellows and with our Team—they're such dedicated people, they're incredible and inspiring individuals, and their combined efforts are truly moving mountains.

As a founder of The Resolution Project, I have been inspired and thrilled with our growth and impact thus far. Our concept is simple: partner with existing youth summits, run our Social Venture Challenges at those conferences, and select Resolution Fellows whom we support with funding, mentorship, services, and a global community. This is all about taking the education and words spoken at youth summits around the world and translating them into action, so that the leaders of tomorrow who make up the audience at these conferences can begin to have an impact today. Resolution has three major impacts today: the education, empowerment, and inspiration of our Fellows around the world, the measurable, amazing work they are achieving through their social ventures in local communities, and the wonderful effect that mentorship has on our team of fantastic volunteers. All in all, I enjoy every minute working with the team and Fellows at Resolution and look forward to more growth, achievement, and positive impact on the world. Thanks to all of those who support and help Resolution, as well as to our Fellows, who continue to amaze me every day.
