Behind every child who walks into a classroom for the first time, and behind every young
person who dares to dream bigger, there is often someone standing quietly in the
background—a “Donor” At PMW International Educational Rescue Foundation, we know that dreams don’t just happen on their own. They are nurtured, protected, and made possible through the compassion and commitment of people who choose to believe in a better world.
This is the story of what your giving truly means and the importance of donations.
More Than Money: A Gift of Opportunity
When donors support PMW International Educational Rescue Foundation, they are not just
funding programs—they are planting seeds of possibility. Whether it’s providing a school
uniform, sponsoring tuition, rebuilding a classroom, covering transportation, or supplying
textbooks, each contribution becomes a stepping stone in a child’s journey toward a brighter
future.
For many children in underserved communities, education is not a guarantee—it’s a fragile
hope. Your generosity makes that hope real and tangible.
Since the Foundation’s Inception (Late 2024)
Though PMW International is still in its early stages, the impact has already been real and
personal. Since its founding in late 2024**, your support has helped launch meaningful change in the lives of real students—children who are now closer to achieving their dreams because you chose to give.
An 11-year-old boy, received textbooks for the very first time. His dream of becoming a
teach???? now has the tools to grow. Two young children were provided safe transportation to and from schoolfor the entire academic year—relieving their family of a major financial burden and allowing them to attend school consistently. These are not isolated moments of kindness—they are the direct result of your investment in their future.
Because of you, children who once had no access—or only limited access—to education are
now reading, writing, and setting goals that once felt far beyond reach. Children and youth
who are marginalized or at risk are now preparing for high school and beyond, and dreaming of careers as educators, doctors, engineers, and leaders in their communities. These stories aren’t miracles. They’re proof that change is possible—when someone cares
enough to act.
You Are Part of the Mission
At PMW International Educational Rescue Foundation, we believe that rescuing the right to
education is a shared responsibility. Our donors are not outsiders—they are partners in
purpose. Every gift you give continues the legacy of Phyllis Maud Wyatt and fulfills the vision of our founder, Dr. Sharon P. Sutherland-Reid: to ensure that no child is left behind. Your belief in our mission empowers us to reach farther, respond faster, and serve more
children in places where help is needed most.
A Message From the Children (and Us)
To every donor, we want to say you are the reason children dare to dream. You are the reason children and youth can look beyond survival and toward a future filled with possibility. And you are the reason PMW International continues to grow—stronger, bolder, and more hopeful every day. Your giving lights the path. Education is a long road, and for many children, it’s a road filled with obstacles. But with your help, that road becomes walkable—and even beautiful.
Every child deserves to dream. Every youth deserves a future. Every step they take is made
possible by the kindness of people like you. Thank you for walking this road with us and making thier dreams a reality.
