Help us achieve our mission
We are a small non-profit organisation. We work with like-minded individuals and organisations around the world to achieve global impact tailored to local communities' needs.
Make a donation
All donations make a difference, no matter how large or small. Your donation could bring digital inspiration to young people by:
- donating classroom packs of micro:bits and accessories to under-resourced schools
- providing teacher training to build teachers' skills and confidence
- developing tailored resources for students with additional needs
- translating educational content so teachers and students can access resources in their own language
If there's a particular area of our work that you're interested in supporting, please do get in touch.
Partnerships
We are proud to work with incredibly passionate and talented people who contribute resources and expertise to support young people with their digital education.
In collaboration with partners, we:
- develop high-quality educational resources and technical solutions that support teachers and inspire students
- deliver tailored projects that meet the needs of local teachers and students
- provide support and training to build teacher skills and confidence
- carry out in-depth research to understand our impact and learn lessons for the future
- share expertise and disseminate best practice
