To be a leadership development organization that provides students in the United States a vehicle to advocate for positive change in neglected regions of the world. We empower students to become leaders, giving them opportunities to improve health and education in developing communities worldwide.

The organizational model of the Student Movement engages students on pressing global issues that are not represented in the mainstream media. Today, the Student Movement has nearly two dozen college campuses that are actively engaged in raising awareness and funds for issues in “neglected regions of the world.” Students fundraise for schools in the Limpopo province in rural South Africa, for a water-pipeline in rural Kenya, and also coordinate the Joining Hands Pen-Pal project.
