Creating a Narrative of Change

Transforming Literacy
One Family at a Time

We aim to break the cycle of reading poverty by empowering teachers, providing access to culturally relevant materials, and engaging with communities and families in fun and innovative ways to foster a love of reading.

How Our Story Began

Pangea was founded in 2011 with the same goal we have today: increasing access to education for under represented communities. At first, this looked like creating sustainable income for local schools in Uganda. Our data quickly revealed that we could have a far greater impact by dedicating 100% of our efforts toward literacy. Since then, Pangea has been recognized by UNESCO, MIT, and Forbes for our work–and our story is far from over.
