At EduCare, our desire to serve students is at the heart of who we are. We are so invested in education that we have turned it into a global movement - the EduCare Global Education Movement. You can be part of this initiative too! Each time you complete an EduCare online tutoring session, a portion of the cost goes to making education accessible to a child in Africa, Asia or Latin America.
Why do we think Global Education is important?
The United Nations recently reported that as recently as 2009, there were more than 67 million "out of school" children around the globe* - children not going to school due to financial, social or accessibility issues. Lack of education puts these children at risk of poverty, sub-standard health care and many other socio-economic problems. At EduCare we know first-hand that a solid education gives children the foundation to become successful adults.
If we can help even one child receive a better education, the world will be a better place. But we aren't pledging to help just ONE child -- through our Global Education Movement, we have already helped more than 800 students. And with your help, we can reach many more.
EduCare has now partnered with Pencils of Promise to expand the work of its Global Education Movement. Starting July 1, 2011, we are donating a portion of funds raised through our socially responsible online tutoring programs, and select mobile applications to Pencils of Promise to help them build schools and classrooms for children around the world.

By completing a tutoring session, you will be "doing good" for others, and helping yourself to "do well" on your next exam! Now that is what we call a win-win!
Visit EduCare or the Pencils of Promise's PoP Shop today to access all of these socially responsible educational tools. Then
tell your friends about this initiative and invite them to join it too!
