OUR MISSIONTo transform individuals, families and
communities out of poverty into
lasting wellbeing.
ABOUT US:The Work
Venture 2 Impact has strategically focused itself
around three E’s: Education, Empowerment,
and Economic Development.
We believe that through initiatives in these three areas, we are able to bring
individuals out of poverty and into lasting wellbeing. While our initiatives
within each category ebb and flow based on local needs, solutions, and opportunities, these pillars are the
strong foundation to all the work that Venture 2 Impact does.

VOLUNTEER IN INDONESIAIdeaForce SKILLED VTO
February 23 – March 4, 2017
CHALLENGES AND OVERVIEW: We asked islanders to
tell us about their problems
ACCESS: lack of access to electricity, fresh water and health care impact the lives of islanders
daily.
EDUCATION: Many islands don’t
have education opportunities post
primary school. This traps islanders into subsistent fishing or farming as a career.
ECONOMY: A weak local economy is a product of poor access to opportunities and low emphasis on education.
It’s impossible to address the economy without addressing the two
previous issues.
IDEAFORCE VTO INITIATIVE: You are invited to engage the community, survey data and your critical thinking to find
innovative and sustainable solutions. Below is a break down of what the week will look like:
LEARN: Volunteers will learn about issues from local communities
and through survey data gathered by
V2I
IDEA: We will break volunteers into
groups to discuss learning and
brainstorm ideas
BUILD: Review all ideas
brainstormed, take the strongest and build an MVP to
test with the community
ENGAGE:Bring
community back test MVP,
provide feedback, and determine next
steps
