About us
In 2023, SpeakUP! International Inc. has experienced remarkable growth, with a staggering increase of 266%! Our outreach has extended across the globe, connecting us with individuals from Canada, the United States, South America, Europe, and Australia. Engaging with people on an international scale has been a truly enriching experience, showcasing the beauty of diverse perspectives while unveiling our shared humanity.
It is this very common thread that serves as a catalyst for meaningful change. Our mission at SpeakUP! International revolves around the pursuit of dialogue within marginalized communities, providing a wellspring of inspiration and motivational conversations. These conversations offer valuable guidance to individuals seeking the path to success.
In the blink of an eye, we often lose individuals with powerful voices and inspiring messages, leaving a void that can never be filled. Our unwavering commitment is to preserve and curate these positive messages, creating a repository for people to access and draw inspiration from indefinitely.
What message burns within you? What life experiences have profoundly transformed you? How have you contributed to your community? It's essential to recognize that the most profound change often starts with seemingly small acts of kindness, from assisting a neighbour with food to ensuring the elderly receive the care they deserve. Reflect on the emotions that performing these acts of goodwill evokes. Every action, no matter how inconspicuous it may seem, holds immense significance and value. Your voice matters, your experiences are invaluable, and your contributions make a difference in ways you may not even realize.
