Deborah Henry is one of the bravest women we know. In her 15 years of building Fugee Org, a non-profit refugee education organisation, she's encountered set back after set back - but also made an extraordinary impact.

What has she learned about building impact-driven businesses?

• That resilience is about showing up and rolling your sleeves up every day;
• Participation and buy-in from the communities you are serving is the key to creating real impact;
• How to create sustainable funding streams;
• Helping means helping all - we can't be selective in activism.

Business On The Rise is produced in collaboration with On The Rise and ASBHive and supported by Maybank Trustees Berhad.
