Magicians Without Borders Information

Since 2002, Magicians Without Borders has traveled to and performed for over 1,000,000 people in over 40 countries using magic to entertain, educate and empower. We believe that learning, practicing and performing magic transform at-risk youth’s lives, by awakening dreams and the hope that the impossible is possible. We created a unique long term education program that increases a child’s self-confidence, discipline, focus, and self-esteem. This gives them the opportunity to raise themselves out of poverty and to enthusiastically create a hopeful future. This program is implemented in the slums of big cities. Mainly in Latin America, India, and the United States. The magic classes of 10-20 children meet weekly to learn, practice and eventually perform magic. These classes continue for a least a year and some have been going for as long as seven years. We also give them entrepreneurial skills training so that they can sell magic services to gain extra income.
