Our Story
ProQvi Igloo, the International Grassroots Leadership Outreach Organization, began as a small women’s initiative in rural southern Sweden in 2010. Over time, it has grown into a dynamic international non-profit dedicated to supporting individuals who feel excluded from social systems due to cultural background, social status, neurodivergence, or other personal challenges.
What started as a focus on individual support has evolved into a mission of empowering women and young people to collaborate and build sustainable initiatives. By fostering teamwork, creativity, and personal development, ProQvi Igloo helps individuals turn challenges into opportunities and cultivate change in their communities.
Key milestones include the establishment of our training facility in rural Sweden in 2019 and the launch of Project Pocket, an incubator for social initiatives, in Helsingborg in 2020. These efforts have inspired six additional non-profits, two of which operate outside Sweden, led by former trainees and volunteers.
