Lightbulb advances your social impact mission through transformative experiences.
The Learning Sciences tell us that engagement leads to learning. When we DO something, we understand and we remember.
This is what Lightbulb Experiences do. They are hands-on, interactive and deeply engaging. They show rather than tell. They ask us to participate, and the returns are high.
Whether in a five-minute exercise, an hour-long webinar, a day-long Board meeting, or a three-day conference, Lightbulb engages participants so they come away with something new. Something powerful. Something that opens their minds to a new way of thinking.
Along the way, we create “Lightbulb Moments,” ones that make us say “ah ha!” or “I get it!”
Our Guiding Principles
Really!
If you are an education funder or sector leader, ask yourself:
If you wanted to take your Board to a real classroom, how would you design the visit?
If you saw an amazing Early Childhood program in action, how would you capture it for your colleagues?
If you wanted to tell other Funders about one of your most valued grantees, what would you do?
If you wanted to showcase practices as a great example for the field, how would you do it?
If you wanted your Board of Directors to understand what you look for in a program, how would you explain it?
If you wanted your staff to learn how to assess a program, how would you train them?
If you wanted to convene Funders to advance the field, how would you spend your time? And theirs?
