Our Mission
Raising a Scholar is committed to ensuring that every child, regardless of sexual or racial identity, financial background, ethnicity, or any other factor, has access to equal, high-quality primary education. Our mission is to empower as many students as possible to complete their primary education and to support them in pursuing further educational opportunities.”
THE PROBLEM: A GLANCE AT INEQUALITY
WHAT
Educational inequality refers to the unequal distribution of learning resources—such as school funding, supplies (like books and technology), qualified teachers, and infrastructure—across different communities. This disparity arises from factors such as socioeconomic divides, poverty, cultural and racial discrimination, ineffective public policies, and gender bias, all of which limit equal access to quality education.
IMPACT
Educational inequality contributes to higher unemployment rates and increased crime, creating unsafe environments for students and leading to life-altering consequences. While these impacts are felt globally, they are often more severe in regions facing additional economic and systemic challenges.
PROPOSED ACTIONS
We advocate for prioritizing girls’ education and increased government support to foster safer and more inclusive educational systems. We recommend that communities work to establish emotionally safe environments where students are valued equally, without judgment based on skin color or academic ability. Additionally, we believe that providing financial support for teachers is essential to achieving educational equity and equality.
What We Do

Raising a Scholar provides tutoring assistance for students worldwide, connecting them with dedicated mentors who are carefully selected to meet standards of excellence and commitment

That’s why we provide donations of technology, school supplies, and funding to schools and organizations in need.
