Your Sponsorship Gives the World to Our Kids

By Sponsoring or Subscribing to Blue Whale Learning, you offer kids in middle and high schools the chance to see the world in new and positive ways.

Blue Whale programs engage students while sparking their curiosity and asking questions designed to help them look at the world, both past and present, in ways that make them really think about how they can impact the future.

While programs are available by subscription, we are proud to join The Da Vinci Foundation for Innovative Education to make all of our programs available through scholarships and sponsorships for children and schools in need.

If you’d like to support our efforts to distribute all of our programs freely to students in need, please visit The DaVinci Foundation to learn more about sponsoring, donating or volunteering.
