Ida Puliwa: A Tour de Force in fighting poverty
learn more in the award-nominated documentary, "Who Is Ida?" by Ken Kobre

Our Story

I Demand Access was born in 2019, after we were inspired by the work of an amazing woman, named Ida, who dedicate her life to help educate and empower people in her district.

It is incredible and unique that everyone who receives help gives back to others, creating a self-sustaining community and truly living by “passing on the kindness”.


Our Inspiration
Ida Puliwa, the founder of Othakarhaka Foundation, was the first female from her village to graduate college. Ida finished university and returned to her village to help other girls get to school and to teach them how to help each other.

A Little Goes a Long Way
We were impressed with how LITTLE it took in Malawi to kick-start people out of poverty and onto a path of self-sustainability. We started a nonprofit in the United States that could help Othakarhaka and other organizations like it in Malawi. We know that with just a little funding, the people of Malawi can go a long way!
