About the company
Global Deeds is devoted to disrupting the cycle of poverty by assisting schools, teachers and corporations in the process of empowering low-income youth through modern education and employment.
By "modern" we mean practical, civic, vocational, technical and innovative education. We want students to become true critical thinkers, take ownership of their education, and ultimately, their lives.
