IRS990/MissionDesc0The Luminos Fund is dedicated to creating education innovations to unlock the light within every child. By developing and scaling innovative approaches to learning for the most vulnerable children, were able to work at the margins of the education system, in a space where we can create real change. As we scale pioneering, new approaches to bring quality education to children in the greatest need, we work together with local governments to drive systems-level change. Our first innovative solution is the Speed School program, an accelerated learning, back-to-school program. Through the Speed School program, we have enabled over 100,000 children in sub-Saharan Africa get a second chance at an education.
