Foundation

Education Technology & Services
As a socially conscious organisation, EduInnov8, founded EduInnov8 Foundation, an independent education impact organisation. The Foundation complements our strategic vision and unlocks critical funding required to drive impact solutions at scale.

EduInnov8 Foundation fosters the development of first-generation learners and enhances the societal structures via education, with an emphasis on strengthening schools to serve as the pillars of their local communities.

What is a first-generation learner

EduInnov8 Foundation empowers first-generation learners and strengthens schools as community pillars, driving societal improvement through education.
First-generation learners are defined as individuals who are the first in their families to pursue a particular level of education that their parents or guardians have not attained.

First-generation learners often lack exposure to social and educational resources, affecting their development. EduInnov8 Foundation collaborates with schools to train teachers, address neurodevelopmental needs, and incorporate technology into education.

Why would you partner with EduInnov8 Foundation?

To have a meaningful impact on education, projects require scale accompanied by coordination with supplementary programs.
Cycling Project
Our cycling project is iconic of the opportunity, achievement, community involvement and excitement we wish to mobilise in communities. Our model positions schools as the central pillar for these events.
Access to Information
Through association with EduInnov8 Partners, we have access to information, used by our Foundation, to advise on where and how to invest your funding or implement your projects for maximum educational impact.
Evidence-Based Interventions
We subscribe to the approach where our interventions are activated in school feeder systems where other evidence-based interventions are active.
Transparent, Impactful Investment
EduInnov8 Foundation presents impact investors and funders of education with a transparent and evidence-based approach to maximize the impact of their investment in education.

Why Cycling?

The association with cycling embodies elements of inspiration, aspiration, opportunity and symbolises the mobilisation of “Generation 1”.
Our cycling initiative is based on the proven benefits of cycling for individuals, families, communities, industry, and the environment. For many, cycling represents an inaccessible opportunity with aspirational values we want learners to associate with education.

ABSA Cape Epic - The Grand Finale

The Grand Finale

Achievement!

In the CAPE EPIC, teams are often challenged to adjust their strategy and planning, due to unforeseen circumstances. Inherently, their definition of success and achievement changes as well.

Upon Jaco Venter's crossing of the finish line the EduInnov8 and C2R teams celebrated his achievement of completing a difficult 8 days in the saddle.

First Generation learners face challenges that are imposed by circumstances outside of their control, every day. The EduInnov8 Foundation's mission is to equip them with qualities they need to develop a culture of achievement.

The Reward

It was a cool and misty morning when Jaco Venter set out on the second last stage of the ABSA CAPE EPIC. Without the pressure of riding for position, Jaco could enjoy the magnificent trail network over 87 kilometers with 2300 meters of elevation gain.
A just reward for the hard days he had to complete through perseverance, mental resilience and having a finishing mentality.

EduInnov8 Foundation aims to foster the qualities needed by 1st Generation learners to experience the lifetime rewards unlocked through quality education.

....because education involves more than the transfer of information.

ABSA Cape Epic - Stage 5

Enjoying the journey

Jaco is riding in the Lonely Leopard jersey because teammate Sascha had to withdraw after a crash yesterday. Since his results will not be considered, Jaco's focus has changed to enjoying the wonderful trails, people and scenery.

Cycle2Ride promotes cycling as a mechanism to promote family cohesion through family cycling events and cycling adventures. We equip riders especially families with the skills and conditioning knowledge to ride for recreation or competition. Mountain biking presents us with opportunities to experience nature together and see places you would normally not have access to.

Like Jaco Venter you use cycling to serve the goals and pleasures you plan for your life.

EduInnov8 Foundation aims to bring exposure to these benefits and lifestyles within the reach of 1st Generation learners.
