At Pebble Education, impact is more than a goal. It’s the result of work that challenges assumptions and supports real learning.
We create spaces where students build what they believe in. Through tools, mentorship, and hands-on experiences, we help turn early ideas into projects that people can use and learn from.
Projects with Purpose
Pebble Education has supported over 25 student-driven projects. These range from learning tools and teaching aids to creative experiments that explore what education could become. Each project is built with care, tested in the real world, and refined with feedback.
Events That Move Things Forward
We’ve hosted two national hackathons—Pebble Education’s FrostByte and Change the World—bringing together over 200 students, educators, and technologists. These events featured:
- Workshops by experts in the software engineering field
- Rapid prototyping sessions
- Judging panels including product designers from startups Pebble partners with
The ideas born at these hackathons continue to evolve: some have become standalone tools, and many participants now lead chapters or contribute to open-source education projects.
A Network That Builds Together
Pebble Education’s impact extends through 10+ active chapters in cities including Dallas, Tampa, and Frisco. These chapters:
- Host regular meetups, design jams, and mentorship sessions.
- Run local initiatives and partner with their schools
- Share learnings and resources through our shared Discord
This decentralized model helps each chapter tailor solutions to its local community while staying connected to a national ecosystem of innovation.
Support That Speaks for Itself
We’ve raised over $100,000 in sponsorships and grants, enabling student stipends, event logistics, and tool development. Our partners include:
- Wolfram Alpha, supporting computational learning tools.
- 1Password, sponsoring student data privacy initiatives.
- Interview Cake, mentoring developers on technical problem-solving.
- .xyz and Axure, providing free domains and prototyping licenses.
- AnshKeys, providing discounts for high quality hardware and peripherals for optimal setups.
These partnerships reflect deep trust in our mission, and in the potential of young creators to reshape the future of education.
