Partnerships

WAKE works with local organizations to ensure the best experience and most impact throughout the Tech2Empower program. WAKE most recently worked with Maia, the first female, indigenous-led secondary school in Central America that offers a holistic education focused equally on academics, culture and identity, socio-emotional development, and family engagement.
