Volunteers

Volunteers are the heart of Looma Education! We are thankful to our over 500 volunteers who have contributed their time and many talents to invest in the education and dreams of Nepali children!
We are especially grateful to:
professional hardware engineers working on Looma Box mechanical and electrical design
professional sofware engineers helping us leverage AI to integrate relevant media with each textbook chapter, and who mentor our software volunteers
15+ retired schoolteachers across the US developing lesson plans using modern best-practice teaching methods
150+ engineering students working on Looma for their capstone projects at Dartmouth College, Stanford University, Santa Clara University, UCSD, and Colorado School of Mines
200+ high school summer interns from Menlo School and other local schools writing code for widgets, features and learning games
20+ high school students from Rato Bangala School in Kathmandu using their first-hand knowledge to integrate relevant media files with their textbook chapters
and many more!
