Empowering through Education
Our mission
At Solve to Soar, we aim to empower underprivileged children in Hong Kong by providing free math tutoring. We aim to address the challenges posed by the shadow education crisis, where many students seek outside tutoring, leaving those without resources at a disadvantage. Through consistent volunteer sessions, engaging lesson plans, and personalised support, we strive to build academic skills and confidence in students, ultimately fostering a love for mathematics. We hope to create a future where every child, regardless of background, has equal access to quality education in math, and we hope to cultivate a community where all students feel supported and inspired to achieve their academic goals. By taking small, meaningful steps, we aim to bridge the gap created by educational inequalities.
Sustainable development goals
Goal 1: No Poverty
By providing free math tutoring, we help students in poverty by equipping them with essential skills that enhance their academic performance and increase their future opportunities. Our efforts help break the cycle of poverty, as education is a critical pathway to economic stability and social mobility. As these students gain academic proficiency, they open doors to higher education and better job prospects.
Goal 4: Quality Education
Our mission directly aligns with the goal of quality education for all. We believe that every child deserves access to quality education, regardless of their socioeconomic background. Through our student-led volunteer sessions, we ensure that every child has the opportunity to develop their math skills in a supportive environment, fostering a love for learning and building confidence in their abilities.
Goal 10: Reduced Inequalities
By serving underprivileged communities, we actively work to reduce inequalities, specifically in education. Our tutoring sessions are designed to level the playing field, providing personalised support to those less privileged students who may otherwise fall behind. Through our initiatives, we hope to create a more equitable educational landscape where all students can thrive.

OUR IMPACT
We believe that Solve to Soar makes a meaningful social impact in two main ways: bridging educational gaps for underprivileged children and activating youth leadership.
Student IMpact
By providing consistent math tutoring, we equip students with critical academic skills that will serve as building blocks for their future success - helping break cycles of educational disadvantage. By providing free math tutoring and mentorship, we help these students build foundational skills, improve their academic confidence, and develop a more positive attitude toward learning.
VOLUNTEER IMpact
In addition to helping the children we serve, we also offer student volunteers—particularly those passionate about math—a meaningful opportunity to apply their knowledge in service to the community. Through teaching, our volunteers not only reinforce their own understanding of math but also cultivate leadership, empathy, and a deeper appreciation for educational equity.
