Fortitude EDUCATE seeks to address inequities across the global education sector and work on addressing them one school and child at a time. From resources to sanitation, our EDUCATE initiative works with schools and children in need to provide them with opportunities, resources, and means to access a quality education. We work with retailers, corporates, third party vendors, and government entities to serve as a conduit in helping underprivileged communities access the following:
Transportation
Poverty and the lack of an adequate transportation routes makes travel for children across the world extremely difficult. Some students commute for hours to get to school, using boats, climbing cliffs or even riding rickshaws. Parents are often deterred from sending their children to school as current systems are unsafe and unreliable.

Instructional/learning materials not only include computers, but also simpler tech resources like blackboards, projectors, televisions, and printers in addition to internet access, software applications and tablets
