Peers Beyond Borders

Bridging borders through education, empowering every child’s future

About Us

This project was started by a group of high school students from the Class of 2028 in Seattle, WA, with family roots in Sri Lanka and a vision to make a difference in the lives of underserved children. Working together with local educators and volunteers, we support English learning programs at children's centers in Sri Lanka through online teaching and initiatives such as building libraries. As co-founders of Peers Beyond Borders, we help coordinate programs, teach online, organize fundraising efforts, and develop the project website. We are passionate about creating opportunities for children to learn, grow and thrive.
