WE is a movement that brings people together and gives them the tools to change the world. Our unique family of organizations, WE Charity and ME to WE social enterprise, empower people at home and around the world.

At WE Charity, we empower change with resources that create sustainable impact. We do this through domestic programs like WE Schools and internationally through WE Villages. Our WE Schools program is active in over 10,000 schools in the United States, Canada and the UK, engaging over 2.4 million students in service learning. Our WE Villages program is active in 8 developing countries, creating a sustainable model of international development.

With ME to WE, a social enterprise, we create products and experiences that allow people to do good through their everyday choices. Half of all ME to WE profits are donated to support WE Charity, while the other half is reinvested to grow the mission of the social enterprise.

ME to WE Artisans

ME to WE Artisans pieces are beautifully handcrafted by women in Kenya and Ecuador using traditional skills passed down through generations. Each piece celebrates heritage art forms and provides artisans with an income and the empowerment to become a respected voice in the community.

With a sustainable income, each woman can access education, support her family or start her own business. Every dollar a mother earns is a dollar that goes straight to her household, her children and her community.

We offer a variety of products that range from Rafiki Bracelets, to trend pieces, to our bespoke ME to WE Atelier collection, made with one-of-a-kind pieces and semi-precious stones—so you can look good, and do good around the world.

Spencer’s charisma and dynamism captivate audiences every time he speaks. Whether addressing corporate leaders, non-profits or the education world, listeners are mesmerized as Spencer describes his journey after losing both legs from the pelvis down at the age of five, to when he climbed, and summited, Mount Kilimanjaro using his hands and wheelchair. Spencer is a top-ranked keynoter, author of the best-selling book Standing Tall: My Journey, and star of the documentary Redefine Possible: The Story of Spencer West, which debuted at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2012.

Spencer is loved by television and conference audiences alike for sharing his life lessons on how every individual or organization can tackle mountains and redefine possible.
