Aim
we are raising money for helping individuals, young and adults to be financially free and indipendent by provinding the right tools
About the project and activities.
Financial independence should belong to any individual and is strictly related to mental health and wellbeing.
We work with young and adults, to make them financially free while achieving wellbeing.
Our trainings are based on qualitative and quantitative factors, and a dynamic interaction with groups.
We have already been successfully working with our internally built anti-bullying methodology and model Extirpating Bullying by Educating (EBE) in Italy and would like to extend the project to UK.
The methodology comprise of different modules set to provide the right tools to be successful and financially independent in life.
About We Are Stronger Charity
The charity We Are Stronger was founded on the 29th of May 2017 by Olga Venosa. It is a Charitable incorporated organisation (CIO), and a registered charity in the UK (no.1181286) and Italy (CF93503990728).
The charity aims to help targets of bullying through:
- antibullying prevention programmes and workshops in schools, colleges, universities, and corporates
- legal advise
- telephone line
- one to one psychotherapy and counseling support
- events to spread awareness and fundraising
It also cooperates with universities' neuroscience research departments.
Our team of professionals developed new methodologies engaging in various activities directed to break through current knowledge and experience.
The charity role model module: inspired by the founder’s life, the role model is an essential element of our methodology used to develop resilience, build strength and drive empowerment.
Filling the gap: the charity wants to raise awareness and intervene to prevent bullying on school transportation. Research shows that this is a place where a high incidence of bullying commonly occurs
Our studies and findings provide reasonable ground to believe this phenomenon can be reduced.
We strive to allow new generations to live the life they deserve.
Our operating model maximises the number of volunteers overpaid staff in order to allocate more funds as possible to the actual cause.
