JOIN WOHAA
The Wing of Hope Achievement Awards, or “WOHAA”, provides a fully supported programme led by experienced mentors, for students in Years 9-12.
Over 6 months students have the freedom to create their own fundraising ideas, competing for prestigious awards which recognise the skills and hard word involved.
Run by a UK based charity, Wings of Hope, our mission is to give children from all backgrounds the opportunity to develop the life skills essential to reach their potential.
WOHAA___AWARDS
MAKE A DIFFERENCE
During the programme students gain confidence and experience in key skills required for university, job applications and life beyond. Tracking their progress with their mentor, they work on team building, resilience, creativity, negotiation and communication skills, supported by events run by London Business School and our Speed Mentoring Teams.
Through fundraising activities, the teams compete for various awards, with semi-final presentations at the Houses of Parliament at the end of the year. Various awards are on offer to acknowledge different skills developed during the programme, which can be critical for UCAS applications or job applications
Ultimately the money raised by the teams supports children in India and Malawi gain a valuable education, directly funding places at school.

Our why
We believe that all children deserve the same start in life, regardless of their background, which is why all funds raised through our programmes go into creating educational opportunities in developing countries such as India and Malawi.
We want to level the playing field so young people all around the world have access to vital resources like books and stationery.
