The inception of LearnVille traces back to 2004 when Ms. Carrie Taylor, alongside her family, was in search of afterschool programs for their son at the Alexander Science Center School in Los Angeles. Faced with a dearth of suitable options, they initiated ‘L.E.A.P.‘ (Learning Excites All People), a program designed to kindle a passion for learning among children. What began as a self-financed venture quickly garnered support from notable entities including the Michelle Obama Foundation, the Los Angeles Lakers and Clippers, Home Depot, Target, and Wells Fargo. This backing enabled L.E.A.P. to significantly broaden its reach, positively affecting over 3,000 CHILDREN DAILY across Los Angeles County.

A pivotal moment in her journey was a conversation with Gary Vee, who challenged her to scale her impact from thousands to hundreds of thousands.
