welcome to a new way for students to see the world.

Too Fly Foundation is addressing the need to bridge the gaps between travel, education, and technology for students of color. Through our virtual reality travel experience and program, we are looking to expose students to new technologies, motivate students to learn, and encourage students to travel.

As travel restrictions are being lifted the communities we are serving may be less likely to travel now more than ever with financial hardships. Ideally, we’d be bringing these opportunities to their homes and giving them unique travel opportunities through education and technology.

the intent of the program is to provide students with an immersive experience that covers typical activities before international travel (such as research, budgeting, and planning for a trip), activities that are typical during your trip (such as identifying activities to participate in, learning about the local cuisine, local customs, and traditions), and post travel reflections.

Students will also have the opportunity to virtually tour their country online and with the virtual reality headsets, as well as participate in VR games and activities.

what is the time commitment for the program?

The student will have 10 days from the arrival of the Too Fly Virtual Curriculum Kit with equipment to complete the virtual curriculum. The experience is self-paced and can be completed at whatever pace the student feels comfortable but we reccommend 1-2 hours a day.
