IncitEd's mission is to be the leading crowdfunding platform for education innovation. Educators can use our platform to raise funds for projects that fall outside of the norms of the current system. Parents, investors or anyone interested in funding and being part of this innovation can find and fund projects of their choice. Successful models can then be replicated on the ground anywhere in the world. IncitEd is the grassroots answer to reinventing the education sector.
