About BraveEd
Learning for Resilience and Strength
Our Mission
BraveEd: Learning for Resilience and Strength is an AI-driven platform aimed at empowering survivors of domestic violence through education, career training, and support. Our mission is to help users find scholarships, study-abroad programs, personal training opportunities, and provide a supportive community to rebuild their lives.
We believe that education and economic independence are powerful tools for survivors to rebuild their lives and achieve long-term stability and safety. By providing access to educational resources, career training, and a supportive community, we aim to empower survivors to create a brighter future for themselves and their families.
What We Offer
Over 35+ U.S.-based scholarships provide $200,000+ annually to support survivors of domestic violence with tuition, job training, childcare, transportation, and emergency services, helping them rebuild through education and independence.
Our Skill Academy offers training in Solar Sales, Videography, Photography, Public Speaking, Digital Marketing, Search Engine Optimization, and Lead Generation. We also provide Test Prep Services for SAT, GRE, and GMAT.
We provide guidance presentations, materials on the college admissions process, webinars by university representatives, and sessions for study abroad programs to help survivors navigate their educational journey.
We connect survivors with industry professionals who can provide career guidance and help them secure employment opportunities after completing their training.
Industry leaders, social workers, and educationalists provide motivational talks to guide survivors towards getting back to school, learning a skill, securing high-paying jobs, and achieving economic empowerment.
Our blog serves as a support group where women can meet, successful survivors can share their stories, and provide psychological support and career guidance to others on their journey.
