EduNetwork partners Inc. was founded on a belief that education creates opportunity. With the right resources and support, every student can achieve their dreams. CEO and founder Norman Goldstein was inspired by a personal experience seeing his daughter invent a tool for children with fine motor skill challenges. This experience revealed the untapped potential of young minds when empowered—leading to the creation of By Kids For Kids, a company dedicated to youth innovation, inventive thinking and creativity.

This vision evolved into EduNetwork Partners, connecting learners, families, and communities with corporations that are reshaping society. Edunetwork Partners helps brands and educators collaborate to fund meaningful curriculum, events, and solutions that directly benefit students—while allowing brands to authentically integrate their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) goals with real, measurable change.
