“Ashoka is a great global organization, built on a brilliant idea. It picks up social innovators when they themselves don’t know what great changes they can bring. That’s the stage when budding innovators need the support most. Ashoka helps pool local innovators into global solutions.’ (Muhammad Yunus, Founder end CEO, The Grammen Bank, Bangladesh)
“What makes Ashoka unique is its willingness to step in when the risks are greatest. They seek to help individuals before they have succeeded, when no one else is ready to help and when a litlle help makes an enormous difference.’ (UNICEF, Action For Children)
