What's Happening at WMI?
“How sustainable is this community development project?”
This is an important question we ask our Scholars who are applying for funding through the Community Development Grants (CDG) program.
We want to ensure that the impact of the awarded project is not only felt but sustained after the first year of implementation. This way, we continue to connect our Graduate Scholars to their communities in a positive way.
The CDG Program is one of the many ways we support our Graduate Scholars after graduation. To LEARN MORE about this initiative, visit; www.wellsmountaininitiative.org/what-we-do-act/

Very impactful initiative. I encourage them to extend the light.
Great program!
✈️ Each October WMI invites a handful of its most accomplished scholars to visit the United States, a trip that serves to both celebrate their many achievements and create opportunities for these pioneering young leaders to connect with our supporters.
🌍 We are delighted to be welcoming our three 2024 SCHOLAR AMBASSADORS to the United States in just a few weeks (profiles below). These are WMI Graduate Scholars who are leading local and global change in their fields of clean energy, women’s equity and empowerment, and technology for social good.
During this time, we would love for you to ✨ JOIN US ✨ for a virtual Meet & Greet with these three extraordinary young people!
This is an opportunity for Scholar Ambassadors to share their stories, dreams, and goals with you, the friends and supporters of WMI who fuel this life-changing work.

I am happy to see this huge number of scholars. I encourage 'em to double their efforts and continue spirit of commitement. Thank WMI administration and donors for this role.
It always feels encouraging and comforting to see good works been done such as these. Giving hope to a child who once thought it can not be done. Congratulations to Wells Mountain Initiative class of 2024. The future will never be the same.
