Using science-backed content, AI-enabled technology and human-centered design, Rocket Learning supports government daycare workers and families with tools, skills and resources to unlock their children's full potential. Today, children under the age of 6 in India - 25% of the world's most vulnerable children - are surrounded by loving caregivers who aspire to the best for them, but are limited by their own knowledge and resources. Rocket Learning intervenes at this crucial time for brain development, from birth to age six, to empower and equip parents and teachers with everyday, easy-to-understand activities in small formats, tailored to the developmental level at which children are at.

WHY WE FUNDED LETTER

"Real-time, science-backed content that delivers AIM - Aspiration, Information and Motivation - to communities of caregivers and educators at the right time and stage of development is an ideal tool for transforming children's education in the Global South. By partnering with the Velez Reyes Mas Foundation, we can apply what we have learned in India and think about how to adapt it throughout Latin America. Their work as connectors in the region has allowed us to leverage our experiences of technological outreach to millions of children in India for contextualized use in Peru and other countries. This presents exciting opportunities for collaboration in early childhood development between our regions."
