Quality early education can change

PILAglobal provides innovative education for children and families impacted by displacement and poverty worldwide.

PILAglobal, a 501(c)(3), was founded on the belief that all children, regardless of economic or geographic considerations, are entitled to an education that sparks curiosity, creativity and critical thinking - the foundation of democracy.
For children who live in refugee camps, migrant shelters or in abject poverty, early education is often missing altogether. PILAglobal supports under-served communities around the globe with Nests, or early learning spaces.
Supported by local asylum seekers, international volunteers, and local teachers, each Nest inspires children to explore, negotiate, collaborate and cultivate their passions. For children without access to education, these experiences create a refuge that restores human dignity and nurtures healthy development.
