PINA's Self-Sustaining Model to Fund Education

To eliminate dependence on recurring grants or donations, PINA has developed a not-for-profit business model that generates recurring revenue to independently fund all education projects.

Not-for-Profit Business

Proposed Not-for-Profit Business: Managed Office Spaces

PINA's physical infrastructure — a purpose-built 25,000 sq ft facility — is ideally suited to support financial sustainability. By leveraging and extending the current infrastructure, we will establish premium revenue-generating managed office spaces within our PINA-owned building.

This not-for-profit business will directly financially support our Public Education and Gender Equality programmes, enabling a continuous flow of resources toward these causes independently of donor cycles.
