A Singal Foundation Initiative
RiseAI
The Next Evolution of Education
We're not teaching kids about AI. We're teaching them to partner with AI to solve bigger problems, multiply their ideas, and build the future they want to see.
Turn AI Anxiety into the
Greatest Opportunity
We believe the exact opposite of fear.
AI isn't the threat. It's the tool. And the children who learn to partner with AI today will be the ones who define what's possible tomorrow.
For too long, the conversation around AI and children has been dominated by fear. Fear that AI will take their jobs. Fear that they'll be left behind. Fear that the future belongs to machines, not humans.
They won't compete with AI. They'll use AI to do things no generation before them could even imagine.
RiseAI exists to make that future real for 10,000 children who need it most. Not through theory. Not through fear. Through execution, creation, and tangible proof.
What We Stand Against :
Fluff & Fear-Based Education
Most AI education for kids falls into one of two categories:
Theoretical Fluff
"Learn about AI." Vocabulary lessons. PowerPoint presentations. No real applications. No tangible outcomes. Just concepts that evaporate the moment the lesson ends.
Fear-Based Training
"AI is coming for your job, so you better learn to code." Scare tactics that position AI as an enemy to defend against, not a partner to collaborate with.
We reject both.
RiseAI teaches practical AI partnership skills. Kids don't study AI. They use AI. Daily. To research, write, create, build, automate, and launch. They learn by doing, not by memorizing. And they advance by producing real work, not by passing tests.
What We Stand For
Execution & Creation
Every child who completes RiseAI walks away with something no classroom can give them: a professional portfolio of real projects that demonstrate real capability.
Learning by Doing
Students don't watch lectures. They build. Every lesson ends with a tangible output. Every skill is proven through creation.
Daily AI Partnership
AI isn't a subject. It's a collaborator. Students use AI tools the same way professionals do: to multiply their ideas, execute faster, and create more.
Mastery-Based Progression
No age limits. No grade levels. Students advance by demonstrating mastery through completed projects. A 12-year-old can reach Black Belt if they do the work.
Portfolio Over Grades
By the end, students have 8+ published, launched, or revenue-generating projects. That's not a resume line. That's proof of capability that opens doors.
The 8-Belt System
From First Project to First Business
Inspired by martial arts, each belt requires completing a real-world project that demonstrates mastery. No tests. No essays. Just execution.

The World is Moving.
Kids Are Being Left Behind.
In 2025, China mandated AI education for every primary and secondary student. They're training an entire generation to partner with AI before they enter the workforce.
Meanwhile, only 18% of schools worldwide have AI guidance policies. The gap isn't closing. It's widening.
RiseAI exists to close that gap. By empowering individuals.

10,000 Kids Who Deserve
Better Than Waiting
RiseAI targets underserved youth around the world: children from low-income households, under-resourced schools, and communities where opportunities are scarce.
We're done waiting. And we're teaching them to be done waiting too.
With AI as their partner, these children can publish books, launch websites, build apps, and start businesses. AI has commoditized the tools of success.
Goal: Train 10,000 students by September 2026
Give them the power to control their own destiny.
Global Access
Fully online, accessible anywhere. No elite schools required. No expensive tutors.
Self-Paced
Progress based on what you create, not your age or background.
Self-Sufficiency
We teach kids to create opportunities, not wait for them.
Direct to Families
No bureaucracy. Parents can enroll children directly.
A Self-Sustaining Model
Entrepreneurial by Design
RiseAI isn't a traditional charity that relies on perpetual donations. We're building a self-propelling economy for AI education that funds itself.
The $1M we raise now launches the engine.
After that, the engine runs itself. This reflects what we teach: build something that sustains itself.
Sell to Those Who Can Pay
Same curriculum sold at modest pricing to families who can afford it. Same education, different funding model.
Revenue Funds Scholarships
Every dollar from paid students funds scholarships for kids who can't afford it.
Growth Fuels Growth
More families paying creates an ever-expanding scholarship fund.
Entrepreneurial Model
A business model that funds social impact. Sustainable. Scalable.
Built by Operators Who Know
How to Scale Impact
RiseAI is an initiative of the Singal Foundation, a 501(c)(3) public charity, founded by entrepreneur Anik Singal.
Anik has 25 years of experience building scaled education companies. He's trained over 250,000 students globally and generated millions in online education revenue.
His track record isn't in traditional nonprofit management. It's in building systems that work, scale, and deliver measurable results.
Anik Singal
Founder, Singal Foundation
This program is designed like a business: ruthlessly focused on tangible outcomes, cost efficiency, and scalable execution.
No fluff. No theories. Just results.
The Philosophy
From Anik's TEDx Talk
The foundation of RiseAI: Why entrepreneurship, not charity, is the answer to creating lasting opportunity.
Traditional education systems aren't equipped to teach AI partnership skills. And traditional charity models aren't built to sustain themselves. So we're building something new. Something that produces proof, not just participation. Something that funds itself, not just fundraises.
