Keeva Murtagh – founder
Even as a young girl in County Down, Ireland, Keeva already had a passion for helping others. This led to her work with several charities, travelling to areas stricken by poverty such as Tanzania and South Africa. Keeva is an advocate of bridging geographical gaps and eradicating poverty through microfinance, using her BA degree and Masters in Communication and Public Relations. Aside from microfinance, she also promotes education and mentors entrepreneurs. Keeva says, “Change begins within, and everyone has the potential of being a change agent.”

Paul Gill – founder
Citing Professor Yunus and Jessica Jackley as his inspirations, Paul aims to put his education, business background and corporate experience to good use. He is a civil engineer, who holds MBA from Hult Business School, Ashridge London. His goal of providing mentoring and business advice led him to facilitate education programs in poverty-stricken areas in Cambodia and South Africa. He believes that, in giving, we receive, and he wants to spread his happiness and gratitude everywhere he goes. As long as you believe in yourself, nothing is impossible… and impossible is nothing!
