Why We Do What We Do
We believe in the principle that everyone deserves the opportunity to reach their full potential, though we recognize that not all starting points are equal. This belief has led to the creation of LOGOS. Our long-term plans begin with our Virtual Education Programme (VEP) to ensure we can effectively measure and monitor our impact.
Who Benefits
Our programs serve all children, particularly focusing on black children who historically underperform compared to their peers due to systemic biases and an unrepresentative curriculum. We aim to address these disparities by fostering a healthy self-image and academic excellence.
Our Social Mission
We believe that everyone has something valuable to contribute to society. Often, people just need a bit of help at the right time. Social enterprise, according to our CEO Gilbert R Pomell, involves taking timely, impactful actions for the benefit of others by adopting sustainable business models.
Our Motto: “Ideas that Create Brighter Futures”
Ideas have the power to transform lives, change perspectives, and inspire new beginnings. At LOGOS West Midlands CIC, we are committed to supporting those transformative ideas and helping individuals become the change they wish to see.
Join us in our mission to create brighter futures through education and community support.
