Creating opportunities through skill development and entrepreneurship.
At Peritos Foundation, we believe that lasting change comes from empowerment. Our Small Business & Employment Support initiatives aim to break the cycle of poverty by helping individuals become financially independent.
Opportunity can change a life—and at Peritos Foundation, we’re dedicated to creating those turning points. Our Generating Opportunities program empowers individuals with the resources and guidance they need to start and sustain small businesses. Whether it’s helping a local vendor expand their services or mentoring a youth-led enterprise, we provide personalized support based on each individual’s skills, location, and interests. This includes business plan creation, micro-funding, and access to digital and financial tools. We prioritize inclusivity, focusing on women entrepreneurs, the differently-abled, and underserved communities. By helping people help themselves, we create ripple effects that transform entire neighborhoods. Supporting small ventures not only uplifts individuals but also fuels local economies and fosters a sense of purpose and pride. Every business we help launch is a story of resilience, growth, and hope.
The world is going digital—and we want no one left behind. Our E-Skilling initiatives offer digital literacy and job-ready tech training to those who need it most. Whether it’s teaching basic computer operations to rural youth or offering advanced digital marketing workshops to women re-entering the workforce, we provide tailored training that bridges the digital divide. Our programs cover essential topics such as Microsoft Office, email and internet usage, social media management, online safety, and remote work tools. We also offer introductions to coding, graphic design, and e-commerce for advanced learners. These trainings are conducted both online and offline in collaboration with experienced trainers and partner institutions. With e-skilling, we help individuals stay competitive, open up new income streams, and participate fully in the digital economy. It’s not just about skills—it’s about unlocking futures.
Education is the foundation of every empowered society. At Peritos Foundation, we believe in equal access to academic and vocational learning, regardless of age, gender, or background. Our Education Support programs cater to school-going children, dropouts, and adults who missed out on formal education. We provide school supplies, tuition sponsorships, remedial classes, and digital learning access. For youth and adults, we offer vocational training in areas like tailoring, carpentry, basic IT, beauty services, and more. Through our partnerships with local educators and institutions, we ensure quality learning that’s both accessible and practical. Education, to us, is more than passing exams—it’s about building critical thinking, creativity, confidence, and curiosity. Whether it's helping a child stay in school or empowering a mother to read and write, our efforts open doors to a lifetime of opportunity and dignity.
In a world full of potential, too many talented individuals remain unemployed due to lack of access, exposure, or support. At Peritos Foundation, our Job Support program bridges this gap by connecting job seekers with opportunities that match their skills, passion, and aspirations. We partner with industries, MSMEs, and NGOs to identify entry-level and skilled job openings, and prepare individuals with the training they need—be it communication skills, digital tools, or domain-specific expertise. Our career counseling sessions guide youth to make informed choices, while resume writing and interview preparation workshops boost their confidence. We also help organize local job fairs and create referral networks for blue-collar employment. For many, our program marks their very first job—and a life-changing step toward self-reliance. We believe employment is not just about earning—it’s about finding purpose, dignity, and hope.
