Problem Open Build strives to solve.
- Underserved and vulnerable communities in economically challenged areas. Every day these communities face the challenges of inequality, injustice, disproportionality, and lack of opportunities;
- Juniors who often cannot apply their knowledge in practice;
- A lot of people in underserved communities don’t have access to hardware and software;
- People can’t get a job without working experience.
- A lot of small and medium-sized businesses need to be rebuilt after regional economic hardships, and while rebuilding they need to learn to adapt to fast-changing trends, tools, and infrastructure that may have outpaced them in order to run modern competitive businesses;
- Businesses need to retrain their staff to be able to use new technologies and to be competitive;
The solution from Open Build.
For developers:
- Internships in our company (paying 6 months of salary while training);
- Creating a smart community (Create local support teams per community.);
- Helping to retrain or train individuals, who need to get working experience;
- Tech skill training for females and communities of color is non-existent forcing many into remote work that is dangerous or exploitive in order to survive. Learning tech and software skills give individuals in these communities a chance to build a career rather than just scrape by.
For businesses:
- Train, support, and set up multiple techs and software support companies partnered with existing businesses were available to build community support initiatives.
- Provide free hardware and software for getting business online as well as providing the community with access and local hotspots.
- Help businesses rebuild better than before by giving them access to affordable tools and online marketing, but also to a newly trained workforce eager to help out their community as well as their families.
We don't see barriers to better outcomes. We have had successful projects in Kenya and currently seeing success in Colombia while we start work in Ukraine. Today we are looking for funding to be able to support more people with the possibility to get an education, work in a competitive internship and start new businesses of their own or accept jobs in a new career.
Here we leave video feedback from our team.
By supporting our project you will help people suffering from the war in Ukraine, who need this support like never before to be able to find remote jobs.
It will be your personal investment to live in a better and smarter world by supporting individuals who suffer from exploitation, lack of access to education and job training as well a simple lack of confidence from years of being left behind and left out. Every day these communities face the challenges of inequality, injustice, disproportionality, and lack of opportunity. Our goal is to help them gain access, support and regain trust and belief in themselves, and to set them up for brighter futures by putting them in a position to help their communities out as well.
You can support by donating only 10$-15$, and it can help totally change someone's life.
We want to share with you the outgoing results of your donation, so we promise to share monthly updates about the impact you are making on these communities. Also, we are always open to collaborating :)
