Mission and Program Overview

Mission

The primary exempt purpose of Learning Unlimited is the advancement of education. Learning Unlimited's goal is to energize and revitalize education on a national scale. LU accomplishes this goal by organizing and supporting groups of university students that run educational programs for pre-college students. The programs LU supports teach middle and high school students about "everything and anything."

Program Services

DescriptionGrantsExpenses
Learning Unlimited supported the work of over 2 dozen student groups, some newly formed and some existing, running on-campus educational enrichment programs for middle and high school students. A list of current programs can be found at https://www.learningu.org/current-programs/ . In an ordinary year, these groups would serve over 10000 pre-college students and engage over 1200 volunteer teachers, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many programs could not be held in the 2020-21 academic year. Learning Unlimited stepped in to organize its own virtual program called Rainstorm, with the help of many volunteers from those student groups who could not hold their own program. Rainstorm served about 2000 pre-college students and 250 volunteer teachers. Learning Unlimited expenses also included maintaining a web server for student registration (and numerous volunteer hours to support the codebase), on-site visits to support program operation, maintaining guides and best practices for local leaders, a conference for program leaders, and program mentoring.$0$3,056
