Fueling scientific advancement and hope for all impacted by brain inflammation through research, education, and partnership.

**Inflammation in your brain can strike at the very core of who you are— impacting how you think, feel, move, and act.** Brain inflammation, or neuroinflammation, occurs when the immune system’s inflammatory response affects the brain, nervous system, or spinal cord.

Inflammation, or the inflammatory process, is part of your immune system’s normal reaction to an illness, infection, or injury. It can be caused by viruses, infections, injuries, or even allergies. Inflammation typically resolves when the infection clears, the injury heals, or when you avoid contact with the allergen.

**For some people, this process triggers an endless loop of neuroinflammation and debilitating symptoms like:**

- **Extreme fatigue**
- **Brain fog**
- **Severe sleep issues**
- **Dramatic mood or behavior changes**
- **Depression**
- **Anxiety**
- **Panic attacks**
- **and more.**

These symptoms are often labeled as treatment-resistant mental health, behavioral, neurological, and systemic conditions, and they are frequently dismissed or misdiagnosed in typical healthcare settings. The relationship between brain inflammation and mental health is understudied and misunderstood.

**The Brain Inflammation Collaborative** is fueling the scientific advancement critically needed to inform better treatment options and care for brain inflammation.

People with neuroinflammation are shuffled from doctor to doctor, medication to medication, trapped in a cycle of debilitating symptoms, medical bills, medication side effects, and hopelessness. It can be overwhelming.

**We are here to help. But we can’t do it alone.**

Funding & trauma-informed therapy and healing resources for adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse (CSA).

**The Let Go… Let Peace Come In Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to helping adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse (CSA) access the healing, trauma-informed therapy, and long-term support many were denied as children.**

Childhood sexual abuse is a global public-health crisis. Millions of adults in the U.S. alone—and hundreds of millions worldwide—are survivors. Many carry the weight of their trauma silently for decades, struggling with anxiety, depression, PTSD, isolation, relationship challenges, addiction, shame, dissociation, and suicidal thoughts. Most have never received the professional support they deserve.

Our mission is simple but urgent:
**Help survivors finally let go of the past and let peace into their lives.**

**Why Our Work Matters**

Most resources focus on prevention and early childhood intervention, but **adult survivors remain one of the most underserved populations in mental health care**. Many live with untreated trauma well into adulthood, affecting families, workplaces, and communities.

Your donation directly supports:

- **Trauma-informed therapy** for adult survivors
- **Recovery and support programs** led by trained clinicians
- **Awareness initiatives** that break the silence and reduce stigma
- **Global outreach** providing resources to survivors in over 160 countries
- **Groundbreaking research** with the **Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health** to better understand long-term trauma and develop more effective healing models

Every contribution helps survivors reclaim their lives.

**A Mission Rooted in Lived Experience**

The Foundation was created by **Peter S. Pelullo**, a business leader, music-industry entrepreneur, and survivor of childhood sexual abuse. Peter’s memoir, *Betrayal and the Beast*, and his national media appearances have helped thousands begin their own healing journeys.

Peter has been interviewed across major news networks—including **ABC, CNN, HLN, CBS**, and others—bringing the realities of survivor trauma into public awareness. His efforts played a role in national conversations surrounding high-profile abuse cases, encouraging more survivors to come forward and seek support.

**Awareness Through Media & Partnerships**

We believe healing requires visibility, empathy, and community. To raise awareness, the Foundation collaborates with advocates, clinicians, and public figures. In partnership with Universal Republic Records, **Mark McGrath of Sugar Ray** recorded a tribute song supporting survivors and encouraging them to step out of silence.

These media initiatives help survivors feel seen, understood, and less alone—often for the first time.

**Global Reach & Lasting Impact**

The Foundation’s digital presence has reached survivors in:

- **All 50 U.S. states**
- **Over 160 countries**
- **More than 40 languages**

We hear from survivors, partners, children of survivors, and families across the world. Many share their stories through our “Survivors Share” program—anonymously or openly—to help others find strength and hope.

**How Your Donation Makes a Difference**

Your gift enables:

- **Free or subsidized therapy sessions**
- **Survivor outreach and care coordination**
- **Educational materials for families & communities**
- **Development of trauma-recovery programs**
- **Funding for research with Johns Hopkins**
- **Production of awareness campaigns**
- **Global survivor-support resources**

Even small contributions fund life-changing support for adults who have suffered in silence for decades.

**You can help someone finally begin to heal.**
**Thank you for standing with survivors.**

Wedu supports women leaders in Asia through mentorship, leadership development, and financial support. 

**Wedu** is a not-for-profit social enterprise on a mission to nurture the next generation of women leaders in Asia. Founded in 2012, Wedu was born out of a desire to address the vast gender leadership gap that persists globally—and is especially stark in Asia, where it is projected to take 189 years to reach full gender parity, compared to the global average of 131 years. Wedu envisions "a world where half of all leaders are women," and works toward this by removing barriers to leadership and enabling women to rise through access to community, capital, and capability.

**HISTORY AND MISSION**

Wedu began with a fundamental insight: that the barriers to women’s leadership are not solely external, but deeply internalized, often rooted in cultural, familial, and social expectations. Over more than a decade, Wedu has developed a community-centered model that supports women at various stages of their leadership journeys—whether they are just discovering their potential or advancing complex career or civic goals.

Wedu’s consolidated mission is to empower women leaders through:

- **Community:** A lifelong supportive network of mentors, allies, and peers.
- **Capital:** Innovative financing to access education and development.
- **Capability:** Programs that shift mindsets and transform limiting beliefs.

These pillars are grounded in Wedu’s Theory of Change, which outlines transformative pathways at the individual, collective, and systemic levels. Wedu believes that change starts with strengthening a woman’s sense of agency and identity, expands through communities of solidarity and mentorship, and ultimately transforms society through gender equity allies and inclusive leadership structures.

**PROGRAMMES**

Wedu’s approach is both high-touch and scalable, combining personalized mentorship with technology-enabled leadership learning.

**Global Mentorship Programme**

This flagship program has supported over 1,500 women leaders (Rising Stars) with guidance from more than 1,700 mentors across the world. These mentorships focus on self-awareness, goal setting, network expansion, and resilience. Since inception, Wedu has facilitated over 90,000 hours of mentorship and more than 2,400 mentorship matches. As of 2024, 76% of participants say they attribute the successes on their leadership journey to the support they received from Wedu​.

**Introduction to Leadership (ITL) Course**

Wedu’s self-paced ITL course strengthens self-awareness, goal clarity, and agency—particularly among women who face structural and cultural barriers to leadership. Informed by over a decade of programming and global research, the course is contextualized for Asian women and integrates self-reflection, identity formation, and leadership development. By 2025, Wedu aims to reach 25,000 women with multilingual and multimodal versions of this course, scaling up to one million women by 2030 in partnership with The Agency Fund​.

**Income Sharing Agreement (ISA) Programme**

Through its innovative Income Sharing Agreement (ISA) model, Wedu enables women to finance their university education and leadership development without upfront costs. This model aligns repayment with income, ensuring financial flexibility and minimizing risk for the individual. As of 2024, Wedu brought this ISA program fully in-house, increasing operational efficiency and sustainability​

**Women’s Leadership Academy (WLA)**

Wedu has been a key partner in regional programs like the Young Southeast Asian Leaders Initiative (YSEALI) Women’s Leadership Academy. Through mentorship and community-building, this initiative fosters strategic leadership among emerging changemakers across ASEAN.

**IMPACT AND REACH**

Wedu’s programs have demonstrated measurable impact:

- 75% of mentees report an increased sense of self-belief and confidence in expanding their leadership networks.
- Participants have achieved key milestones including career promotions, launching social ventures, and civic engagement.
- Wedu’s community spans over 30 countries, with a growing digital ecosystem and partnerships across the education, tech, and development sectors.
- Wedu aligns its impact with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), especially SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-being), SDG 4 (Quality Education), and SDG 5 (Gender Equality), where the highest concentration of community engagement and initiatives are represented.

**ORGANIZATIONAL GROWTH AND FUTURE PLANS**

In 2022, Wedu commissioned Bain & Company to conduct a Geographic Expansion Study, assessing market attractiveness and Wedu’s ability to succeed across prospective countries. Based on this analysis, priority countries for expansion—where both factors ranked high—include India, Bangladesh, the Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam, and Thailand. Cambodia, Myanmar, and Nepal were identified for selective expansion. Wedu is now acting on these recommendations by doubling down on our focus in South and Southeast Asia.

In response to major social, political, and economic shifts across South and Southeast Asia, Wedu has identified three concurrent crises affecting women leaders in the region: the Climate Crisis, the Care Economy, and persistent barriers to Economic Empowerment. To ensure our programmes remain relevant and responsive, our External Strategic Priorities for 2025–2027 are focused on directly addressing these challenges. By 2027, we aim to enable 1,000 women leaders to drive climate-resilient solutions; shift how society and women leaders view unpaid care work, recognizing it as a critical factor in advancing women’s leadership; and enhance the economic empowerment of 1,000 women leaders, particularly those leading Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), through capacity-building, education financing, strategic partnerships, and community support.

Wedu will continue to challenge both structural exclusions and internalized limitations faced by women. By integrating self-reflective leadership learning with long-term community and capital support, Wedu aims not just to close the gender gap—but to redefine leadership itself.

Mission: To mentor families through self-reliance, education and entrepreneurship in an effort to eliminate poverty.

100 Humanitarians International is dedicated to empowering families in Kenya to achieve self-reliance through sustainable food, clean water, education, and health initiatives. Founded with the vision of creating long-term solutions to poverty, we collaborate with local communities to address pressing challenges in rural Kenya. Our programs target key areas to improve quality of life and foster independence, enabling families to break cycles of poverty and create a brighter future.

Our impact areas include:

- **Sustainable Food**: Through initiatives like the Garden Tower and Chicken Projects, we help families grow their own food, leading to better nutrition and income generation. With over 20,000 garden towers built, we are reducing food insecurity and supporting local food sustainability.
- **Clean Water**: By implementing rainwater capture systems, drilling boreholes, and protecting natural springs, we provide safe, accessible water for families, particularly impacting women and girls who often bear the burden of fetching water over long distances. This reduces risks from wild animals and improves health by preventing waterborne diseases.
- **Education**: Education support is at the heart of our mission. By covering school fees and providing supplies, we are enabling children, especially girls, to pursue an education, which transforms communities over time. Additionally, literacy training and skills development programs equip adults with practical knowledge for sustainable income.
- **Health**: Health initiatives focus on menstrual health through HopeKits, dental care clinics, and hygiene projects. These programs empower individuals with resources they need for a healthy and dignified life, further enabling them to support their families and communities.

**How Your Donation Makes a Difference**

Donations allow us to expand existing programs, introduce new sustainable projects, and provide critical resources like school fees, water tanks, and garden towers.

Together, we can make a meaningful impact on the lives of Kenyan families and contribute to a future where self-sufficiency is within everyone’s reach. Thank you for partnering with us on this transformative journey.

Since 1986, El Arca has been working to make the rights of children/adolescents effective in order to build an equitable society.

El Arca was founded in 1986 with the creation of a home for children and adolescents who lived on the streets. The institution eventually had three houses in operation and a program to support families. Thanks to this successful experience, more than three hundred boys and girls left the streets as a way of life. Many of them managed to return to their families of origin, others were housed in foster families and a large number grew up and achieved their independence accompanied by the institution. The project was sustained for twenty-five years.

In 2000, with the support of Arcor and Unicef, El Arca began to develop a project to build citizenship in Cuartel V, Moreno. The project is aimed at the population of girls, boys and adolescents in zone 2, which covers five neighborhoods and a population of approximately five thousand minors under 18 years of age. The project initially aimed to contribute to the full exercise of rights of children and adolescents, and worked in four dimensions: the social and educational dimension where the key word was inclusion, the political dimension where the key word was participation, the cultural dimension, and the key word was expression, and the legal dimension where the key word was enforceability. This project was born in the midst of a social, political and economic crisis in our country and in one of the poorest municipalities in the Buenos Aires metropolitan area. Its basis is the successful experience acquired in homes where the central dynamic was the participation of the children and adolescents housed there.

The citizenship building project was transformed and adapted to the political, economic and social changes of the province and the municipality. In 2003 we signed an agreement with the Comparte Foundation, an NGO from Barcelona, ​​which supported our project until 2023, when it transferred its collaborative actions with Latin America to the organization EDUCO, which continues to support our cause to this day. This alliance allowed us to grow in the territory and sustain the project over time, reaping important achievements such as having presented two collective appeals with the active participation of children, adolescents and grassroots organizations. The first was to demand and achieve that the government of the province of Buenos Aires carry out a 1km asphalt road from route 25 to the El Vergel Cuartel V neighborhood and the construction and equipment of a health center.

La alianza con primero con Comparte y luego con Educo, también nos permite sostener un equipo de trabajo que año tras año monitorea la  escolaridad de 1000 niños y niñas en escuelas primarias públicas para poder acompañar sus trayectorias y apuntalarlas en caso que sea necesario. Este programa logró desarrollar acciones de participación de niños, niñas y adolescentes en el ámbito institucional. En tres escuelas primarias públicas con grandes déficits estructurales y mucha sobrepoblación, generando allí asambleas de aula, delegados y espacios de reflexión  colectiva. Gracias a esas acciones se lograron mejoras en los patios de las escuelas y disminución de la violencia entre pares en las aulas y en los recreos.

The program also managed to hold eight annual forums where approximately three hundred children and adolescents participated in each event and made proposals to improve their neighborhoods that were sometimes heard by local authorities. These forums were held in Cuartel V, and in 2022, the first Forum with the participation of children and young people from all over Moreno was held together with the Local Council.

From 2005 to 2015, with the support of Arcor, we coordinated RedOnda, a network of 25 organizations from 15 provinces, developing actions of leading participation and educational inclusion at the institutional and community level with a total of 40,000 children and adolescents. In 2014, in Mendoza, we held a national congress on the protagonism of children and adolescents with the participation of more than 500 boys and girls from 15 provinces. Between 2012 and 2014, we conducted training sessions on the participation of children and adolescents for municipal teams of children from various towns in Córdoba, Tucumán and Catamarca, convened by the Arcor Foundation. In 2014, within the framework of the strategic plan for the city of Arroyito, we conducted a survey of 600 children and adolescents in the city and supported the process of creating the City Council for Children.

In November 2015, HBO Latin America premiered Sembradores de Optimismo, an initiative dedicated to disseminating the work of organizations working on innovative educational projects in countries in the region. El Arca was chosen to represent our country.

Our citizenship-building project continues to be developed in Cuartel V, Moreno (Buenos Aires Province) and focuses on two fundamental pillars: the right to participation of boys and girls, and educational inclusion, placing special emphasis on gender equality and the eradication of any type of violence against girls and women.

Education Axis

In a context where the lack of school infrastructure is a central problem, we work with children, adolescents and their families so that no one is left out of school.

The Ark has promoted projects in schools and neighborhoods that seek to strengthen collective processes, improve educational processes, as well as address educational issues from a rights perspective that is inherent to all our work and through the leading participation of boys and girls.

We accompany the educational paths of approximately 1,000 children and adolescents each year. This may involve direct assistance in some situations, the management of school materials of different kinds (furniture, teaching materials, etc.), as well as the organization of demands regarding difficulties that affect the educational inclusion of boys and girls (transportation, access, building deficiencies, lack of educational establishments, etc.). All these actions are developed taking into account the agreements that can be established between the different actors in the community (school, municipality, community centers, children's council, etc.)

Our main actions in this area are: a mixed-gender soccer school in which 100 boys and girls participate, a traveling play center that travels through the neighborhoods promoting the right to play, a literacy program for primary and secondary school children, monitoring the educational path of 1,000 boys and girls, meeting points at the entrance of schools where we provide advice on rights, education, and we lend books and games. We also coordinate our work with schools to detect difficulties and situations that require support.

Participation axis

Since its origins, El Arca has worked with girls, boys and adolescents in projects that enable their individual and collective ideas, their voices and decisions. The initiatives carried out under this orientation have the particularity of seeking to encourage the participation of boys and girls in the organization and planning of tasks in different areas in order to include their considerations in the educational, recreational and sports projects of the neighborhood and to be taken into account in the preparation of public policies directed at children and adolescents.

El Arca has developed many experiences of participation in school institutions and at the community level. In addition to currently holding Councils of boys and girls in different parts of the neighborhood, it has organized eight Forums through which more than a thousand boys and girls have participated. This experience has provided us with a large number of methodological tools that we seek to share and enrich with the institutions of the neighborhood. In the last two years, the project includes joint initiatives with the municipal children's department and the Local Council to promote citizen participation throughout the municipality.

Our main actions in this area are: classroom councils in primary schools where boys and girls learn to resolve conflicts through words, support for the formation of student centres in secondary schools and territorial councils where boys, girls and educators meet every week to collectively think of ideas to improve their neighbourhood, which are then expressed and taken into account by the community and local authorities.

Allies Against Slavery builds platforms and partnerships that accelerate data-driven solutions to human trafficking. 

Human trafficking is a hidden problem that thrives in the shadows of society. Myths and misconceptions are pervasive, and data is unreliable. As a result, victims aren’t identified, traffickers aren’t prosecuted, and solutions aren’t data-informed or well-coordinated.

But that is changing. Allies Against Slavery harnesses data to illuminate and eradicate human trafficking. Our tools help allies in the fight to identify victims, coordinate care, and take informed action. 

Our vision is clear: to ensure that every community across the United States has the data it needs to combat and prevent human trafficking. But we cannot achieve this vision alone. We need to leverage innovative, data-driven solutions and forge crucial partnerships to shine a light on trafficking and build a future where freedom and dignity are secured for all. We invite you to join us in this important mission.
