Why We Keep Going
For too many, education programs are disconnected from what is needed in today's world. For too many, the high quality programs are simply out of reach. Edukita exists to change this, and its founders decided to dedicate their full attention into solving this problem. Edukita aspires to provide educational experiences that are useful, engaging, and accessible so every young person will have the opportunity to build a compelling future for themselves.
Since our funding, we've served thousands of students across the country and we're just getting started.
The Gap We Couldn't Ignore
Early in their journey, they quickly recognized the barriers that many families face when they tried to find productive ways to spend their time in between school and home. Although they were eager to develop instrumental skills – such as problem solving, communication skills, and confidence – they didn't have good options. A lot of after-school programs are only exam prep focused. Most high-quality, progressive programs come with inaccessible price tags. As a consequence, most families are stuck with video games, social media, and other unproductive means to keep themselves occupied.
How It All Began
Edukita was founded with a simple belief that high quality education should be accessible to all.
It started as a part-time project during the pandemic while its founders still had full-time commitments – Peter Gumulia was still at Harvard Business School and Sean Widjaya was full-time at Airbnb. During this challenging time, they decided to start Edukita out of their shared passion for education and talent development – and their shared gratitude for educational and work experiences they've had.
