The Handprint Project

Meet Our Inspiring Youth Mentors

The Handprint Project began with five founders but our journey was never meant to stop there. Built by youth and powered by passion, The Handprint Project is driven by the belief that young people are not just the future, but the leaders of change today. We foster engagement and positive impact by creating spaces where youth can voice their ideas, showcase their talents, and contribute to society in meaningful ways. Through our initiatives and events, young people are empowered to lead with confidence, purpose, and empathy.

At The Handprint Project, we believe every child deserves the opportunity to embrace who they are, define their own future, and change the world around them. Our goal is to help children across the globe achieve exactly that regardless of background or circumstance. Join our team today by submitting an application and become part of the movement!

I'm Sohela, and I co-founded The Handprint Project with my siblings. To me, philanthropy is about giving without expecting anything in return. Our goal is to uplift children who lack opportunities, making the world a fairer, kinder place for all.

Sanjog (Co-Founder)

My grandfather taught me the true meaning of philanthropy-giving selflessly to those in need. He helped build orphanages, and I want to continue his legacy. Through The Handprint Project, I hope to help every child chase their dreams.
