Global Education, Technology, Trust, & Opportunity for All
Founder's Message From Dr. Diane Tucker
I created the Impact Innovation Foundation because I believe every community deserves access to education, technology, and opportunity. Throughout my work across business, leadership, and global development, I have seen how quickly the world is changing. I have also seen how many people are left without the tools they need to participate in that change. I founded IIF to close that gap.
​
My vision was simple. I wanted to build a foundation that could open doors for people. I wanted young students to have access to real technology education. I wanted women entrepreneurs to have the support they need to grow their ideas. I wanted families facing hardship to have a path toward stability. I wanted communities to understand and trust the technologies shaping their daily lives. Most of all, I wanted to create a place where innovation serves people, not the other way around.
​
IIF exists to empower. It exists to equip. It exists to educate. It exists to prepare communities for the future. We are here to help people rise with confidence as the world evolves around them. When education is accessible and technology is understood, people gain the power to build the future they deserve. That is why IIF was created, and that is why our mission continues.
