Welcome to the Movement
We are Sydney and Wilma, founders of 1,000,000 IMPACTING 200,000,000, a global initiative born in South Africa with one bold mission: to transform science education for millions of children across the Global South.
We believe you are here because you care about making a positive difference in the world. That makes you unique and part of the solution.
Why STEM Education Matters
Natural Science and Chemistry are not just school subjects; they are the foundation for solving the world’s greatest challenges:
- 🌍 Climate change & environmental sustainability
- 💧 Water and food security
- ⚡ Energy innovation
- 🏥 Global health
The future needs passionate scientists, doctors, engineers, and innovators. But in most developing nations, public schools lack functioning laboratories. Without access to hands-on experiments, how can governments expect to produce the expertise their people desperately need?
The Breakthrough: Mylab™ Science Kits
Thanks to Prof. Corrie du Toit and Marie du Toit at North West University, South Africa, the Mylab™ kit was developed over 25+ years. It’s an ingenious solution:
- A complete science lab packed into two portable toolboxes
- Affordable, refillable, and curriculum-aligned
- Designed for Grades 4–12
- Enables teachers and students to perform real experiments anywhere, even under a tree
Our Vision
Through 1,000,000 IMPACTING 200,000,000, we aim to:
- Deliver 1 million Mylab™ kits to 100,000 schools in developing nations
- Reach 200 million children with hands-on STEM education
- Train and empower 400,000 teachers with practical skills
This is not charity, it’s legacy.
Imagine the Impact
Picture 200 million young people with a solid foundation in science, empowered to innovate solutions for their communities and the planet. Imagine 400,000 teachers equipped to inspire generations.
This is mind-blowing potential. And it starts with you.
How You Can Join
We invite:
- Individuals passionate about education equity
- Corporates and SMEs seeking CSR impact aligned with SDGs
- Foundations and Trusts funding systemic change
- Family offices & HNWIs building generational legacy
Together, we can make STEM education accessible everywhere.

If we can get 200 family offices/businesses to commit to a monthly donation of US$500 x 200 = US$100 000 a month, which is enough to equip 10 schools a month, which will impact 4,000 children a year.
Now if we take US$100 000 x 12 months x 10 schools a month = 120 schools a year x 400 = 48 000 children a year.
