Richard Siganto, CEO of iSponsor, knows firsthand the challenges of being a young person who isn’t reaching their full potential. As an Indigenous Australian who grew up below the poverty line in a rural area, Richard had limited access to community activities like organized sports, which are incredibly important for a child’s development. Despite these obstacles, he overcame his circumstances, rising from childhood poverty to become a leader in his industry, driving positive change on a global scale. He credits his success to creativity, a strong work ethic, and perseverance. His early struggles developed the survival instincts that now fuel his mission to help others. Richard is dedicated to ensuring all children, no matter their socio-economic status, have access to education, sports, and opportunities for personal growth.
