Who We Are

The Oppia Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with the mission to provide high quality education to all. We do this through the creation and maintenance of our platform, Oppia (http://www.oppia.org), the coordination of our passionate contributors, and the development of critical partnerships with NGOs in the communities we aim to serve.

Where You Fit In

Millions of children are not receiving the education they deserve. Of the 61 million children worldwide who cannot attend primary school, 17 million will never step foot into a school if trends continue. With the presence of COVID-19 today, millions more children are also seeing interruptions in their daily lives, stability, and education - making it even more difficult than before for many students to get the education they need to succeed.

It is an exciting time for Oppia - as we're have released our first comprehensive, basic mathematics curriculum, and we're also launching a whole section of the website highlighting this curated set of lessons! While we're most of the way there, we need volunteers to tell our stories to funders and donors, increasing awareness of our achievements, future goals and perspectives.

We hope to meet applicants who are detail-oriented and excellent in written communications. We welcome and value any experiences in fundraising, and are happy to guide individuals who are willing to learn and grow through this opportunity.
