HUB is an American-based organization with the mission “To help transition our world from survival to self-empowerment to sustained abundance”. They create sustainment projects around the world to help the poorest people break out of poverty. HUB works in partnership with some of the world’s finest non-profit organizations and connects all of these organizations to help create a cohesive package to both aid and empower the chosen communities in need.
In partnership with Kimmie Weeks and Youth Action International, HUB is committed to supporting YAI’s efforts with funding for the projected 300,000 former child soldiers and is looking at supporting the education of over 6 million children. They propose a “full package” product in delivering results and sustainability. In addition to providing food and water to the poorest communities, HUB enforces education as well as vocational training and microcredit loans for the rehabilitation of those communities. The four person team comprising executives from HUB includes its Executive Director Charlie Gay, Kathryn Loriano, Shauna Kane and Francis Battaglia. YAI’s Executive Director Kimmie Weeks was at the Roberts International Airport to welcome the guests to Liberia. “This is an incredible opportunity for Liberia” Weeks said, “HUB is feeding and educating hundreds of thousands of people in other parts of the world and this is an opportunity to bring some of that support to the people of Liberia.” During their stay in Liberia, HUB will meet with community leaders and young people in order to assess the proper steps to take in promoting the self-sustainability and empowerment in the poorest communities.
