We're also focused on removing barriers for historically underserved learners who face systemic challenges to their success. In 2020, we started Outschool.org and began offering financial assistance to families in need. We are currently creating an Educator Endowment Fund to appreciate the teachers who are so central to our mission of inspiring kids to love learning.

Outschool.org, the non-profit arm of Outschool, started in the spring of 2020. Currently, we have served over 25,000 learners, given more than 2 million dollars in free classes, and topped 100,000 hours of education to learners in need. Our work moving forward is to continue providing this support while scaling our impact to reach even more learners, support additional communities, and address different barriers to learning.
