Who We Are
EduBud International Inc. is built on the belief that education is the foundation for a better future. Our mission is to instill in our students the power of education and encourage them to use their knowledge and talents to support further communities.
Below is our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Statement.
DEI Statement
At EduBud, we are dedicated to promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion in all that we do. We believe that a truly transformative education is one that recognizes and celebrates the uniqueness of every individual. Our mission is to provide access to educational resources, mentorship, and leadership opportunities for all students, particularly those from marginalized, underrepresented, and underserved communities, both locally and globally.
We actively work to dismantle barriers to education, advocating for equitable opportunities that empower students of all backgrounds—regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, ability, or socioeconomic status. We are committed to creating a learning environment where all voices are heard, valued, and respected. By embracing diverse perspectives, we enrich the learning experience and encourage innovation, collaboration, and empathy.
EduBud also prioritizes creating spaces where students feel a strong sense of belonging, fostering an atmosphere that supports their growth, development, and aspirations. We recognize that true inclusion requires intentional action, and we continuously strive to ensure that our programs, resources, and partnerships reflect our core values of diversity and equity.
Through our work, we aim to contribute to a more inclusive educational landscape, where every student has the opportunity to thrive, succeed, and lead change.
What is our
MISSION?
Our mission at EduBud is to bridge educational disparities by providing mentorship, resources, and advocacy to underserved communities. We are committed to empowering students, particularly those from marginalized backgrounds, by offering the support they need to succeed academically and personally. Through our volunteer-driven initiatives, we work to inspire positive social change, foster leadership skills, and create opportunities for students to thrive in a more equitable and inclusive education system. Our ultimate goal is to ensure that every student, regardless of their circumstances, has access to the tools and guidance they need to reach their full potential.
So…what do we do?
At EduBud, we connect our team of trained highschool and college volunteers with primary education students through our unique volunteer matchmaking system. This system pairs each volunteer with a student in need of mentorship, creating meaningful one-on-one relationships that foster academic growth and personal development. Our volunteers work closely with their mentees, providing homework help, guidance, and emotional support, while also serving as positive role models. Through this mentorship, we aim to inspire students, boost their confidence, and help them navigate educational challenges, ultimately empowering them to reach their full potential. This collaborative approach strengthens both the volunteers and mentees, creating a cycle of growth, learning, and support within the community.
"Edu" (education) blends with "Bud," representing the idea of nurturing growth and potential, much like a sprout developing into something greater. Our aim is to foster both personal and educational growth, helping all our students reach their full potential.
