Together, this ragtag group of humans has set out to help the world help itself. We are getting the ball rolling. Starting a movement, so to speak. Our number one aim is to make amazing educational experiences available to everyone who wants them. Inspired by our own experiences, and those of pioneers like Sugata Mitra, whose Hole in the Wall project showed the power of SOLE (self organized learning environments), we hope to remove all barriers to Excellence in Education.

Combining the strength of the community with our passion for equality in education is the key to making lasting change and beginning the process of educational and cultural evolution. We are ready to evolve beyond the educational approach designed to churn out cogs in the industrial revolution machine. We are poised to break down all barriers and see humanity's true potential; not just the limited potential of a select class or group of people. Equal access for all does not mean some, most, a few, or even a majority. For all. Forever.
