Our story

Hi, I’m Anna van Veelen from the Netherlands. Together with Bryan Kanagasabapathy of NJK Talents, we are the heart and soul behind NJK: One World, Every Child.

In January and May 2025, our travels through Sri Lanka and India opened our eyes to the harsh realities of poverty. We met children full of potential bright, eager, and resilient but held back by a lack of basic necessities. That experience touched us deeply and transformed us. It sparked a shared determination to make a meaningful difference.

Rooted in compassion and community, we founded NJK: One World, Every Child to create impactful change. Our vision is simple yet powerful.

This is not just a  growfunding it's our mission!

Because every child deserves a chance.
And together, we can build a more just and equitable world step by step for every child.

"My mission is to give vulnerable children in need a voice, opportunities, and safety, so they can grow up with love, trust, and dignity."

"My goal is to provide consistent support to children in need by offering direct assistance, raising awareness, building partnerships with organizations, and promoting sustainable solutions that improve their well being and future."

Example actions that support this goal:

• Supporting or starting projects focused on education, nutrition, or safety.

• Volunteering or launching awareness campaigns.

• Organizing fundraising or donation drives.

• Mentoring or providing emotional and psychological support to children.
