I find my work at Spur incredibly fulfilling because it allows me to witness tangible impact. Children who once had no hope of attending school are now completing their education, becoming self-reliant, and serving as positive role models in their communities. Spur’s holistic approach extends to their families, providing healthcare support and economic empowerment opportunities for those running businesses, creating lasting change.
