About us

Who we are

We aim to spark curiosity and innovation in all students through practical, experiential learning. We believe in providing relevant education that equips children with valuable skills for the future.

Curiosity Gym Education Foundation (CGEF) is on a  mission to provide comprehensive skill-based education in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) fields for underprivileged school students. Introducing STEM education to students at the school level can broaden their understanding of the opportunities available to them and cultivate their interest in these fields. In addition, it can potentially decrease the rate of students leaving school early and foster the development of crucial 21st-century skills among learners.

We
Educate

Our goal is to bring STEM experiential learning to the grass-root level of low-income schools, supporting the implementation of the NEP 2020 vision for experiential learning in classrooms.

We Upskill

Training educators on skill-based subjects such as Coding, AI, Robotics, and Arduino Electronics to equip them with the skills to implement a revised STEM curriculum recommended by NEP2020.

We
Enable

Empowering students to curate their own portfolios, highlight their skills, accomplishments, achievements, thus documenting their learning journey and preparing them for the outside world.

We Find & Fund

Our mission is to support as many schools and students as possible, seeking opportunities to provide assistance to those in need. We are dedicated to funding and helping all who require our support.
