Our Founder
Teacher Nelia always says that “destiny begins with a thought.” Positive thought. She believes that the goal of every human interaction is upliftment. No matter how brief such encounters are, if only everyone is mindful of how his thoughts, words and actions influence others to do what is right and just, then the world will truly be a better place.
Teacher Nelia is a visionary Thought-Leader. She is a renowned scholar who is very passionate about people taking it upon themselves to initiate positive change at will. Such an act is the turning point for growth and progress not just for oneself, but the entire human race.
She is also a social entrepreneur who believes that poverty liberation is achievable by building enterprises integrating social mission, not as an act of charity but as a process of reciprocity so that it may ultimately create an intrinsic value to the community that it serves.
Her life is inspired by the Pearl Principle. She transcended countless personal adversities and accomplished her dreams, ultimately creating a gem of a life.
She was granted the Star of Asia Award in 2004 from the Texas Asian Chamber of Commerce in Austin, Texas, for here innovative contributions to education and entrepreneurship.
In 2003, Teacher Nelia, together with Ms.Susan Dell, Co-Founder and Chairman of the Board of the Michael and Susan Dell Foundation, and Ms. Doris Buffett, of the renowned Buffett Clan and Founder and President of the Sunshine Lady Foundation, among others, was recognised in Dallas, Texas by Northwood University for exceptional leadership and achievement in the fields of business, the arts, public service, education, the media, entrepreneurship, volunteerism and philanthropy.
