1 July 2011 – Imagine a school with no walls, no pencils, no electricity – for millions of children around the globe they don’t have to imagine this, it is their reality. In response, two educational development leaders – the socially responsible online tutoring company EduCare and the non-profit Pencils of Promise – are partnering from today to change this image and make education accessible to all, with the help of students across the U.S.
A project of EduCare’s Global Education Movement, the initiative invites U.S. students to visit the Pencils of Promise website and download a $.99 SAT Prep mobile app for their iPads or iPods to help them study for their SAT exam. All the profits from this action – yes, 100% of the profits – will then go directly to Pencils of Promise to build schools and classrooms – starting with a new school for students in San Antonio Chacayá, Guatemala. It is a great way for U.S. students to “learn and give!” A portion of proceeds from EduCare online tutoring sessions is also going directly to the project.
EduCare CEO Piyush Mangukiya learned first-hand, as a young student in his native India, how empowering education can be – and how difficult life can become for those with little or no access to education. He founded EduCare with the vision that education should be “a right, not a privilege” and to raise funds, through his EduCare Global Education Movement, to make education accessible to all.
“We at EduCare are excited to name Pencils of Promise as our lead Global Education Movement implementation partner and to be working with the PoP team to build schools around the globe. Schools bring hope and opportunity to communities and their youths,” said Mangukiya.
Pencils of Promise grew from founder Adam Braun’s personal experiences while travelling through India. When he asked a young boy begging on the streets what he wanted most in the world, the answer was simple, “a pencil.” It was then that Adam knew how powerful the promise of education could be. He started Pencils of Promise with just $25 and now has more than 200,000 supporters, including Justin Bieber – and has helped to build 26 schools — and counting — around the globe.

21 May 2011 — Sometimes it is the littlest things that have the greatest impact. For an underprivileged student in India, that little thing is a pencil. No one knows this more than Piyush Mangukiya, founder of the socially responsible, national online tutoring company EduCare (www.educateNcare.com) based in Fredericksburg, VA. As a young student in India, he learned first-hand that the lack of a simple pencil can make education inaccessible. Starting today, thousands of Facebook users around the world will have the chance to join EduCare’s Global Education Movement and www.Tonic.com to give pencils to Indian students.
For every person that “likes” EduCare’s Global Education Movement at www.facebook.com/educateNcare, EduCare will donate a pencil to an underprivileged student. The action is small, but the impact will be immense. EduCare’s goal is to donate tens of thousands of pencils. EduCare has partnered with Tonic to create this “good deed,” which is featured at: www.Tonic.com. Tonic is a social good network that encourages users to “Do good. Make a difference. Share the experience,” and has among its high-caliber creators Peter Buffet, son of Warren Buffet, and his wife Jennifer.
EduCare’s commitment to making education accessible to all doesn’t end here. For each student that completes an online tutoring session with the company, EduCare will donate one year’s worth of school supplies to a student in need as part of its Global Education Movement.
18 May 2011 — Pencils of Promise (PoP) is a young U.S. non-profit that builds schools in the developing world as part of its commitment to make education accessible to all. So far, it has broken ground on 35 schools across Laos, Nicaragua, Guatemala, through the help of over 150,000 young supporters. Now PoP is challenging these youths to raise funds for the organization’s work through its new School4All initiative. The race is on, as the top fundraiser will get a personal visit from the organization’s founder, Adam Braun, and his friend Justin Bieber.
