GenWise × Godrej Foundation
Tomorrow Makers is a national programme of the Godrej Foundation that finds bright students from underserved backgrounds and gives them the sustained mentoring most of them would never otherwise reach. GenWise designs and runs its STEM track – weekly online sessions in Science, Mathematics and computational thinking, beginning in middle school. Free for every student.
GenWise is a Programme Partner of Tomorrow Makers, an initiative of the Godrej Foundation – alongside Avanti Fellows, Dakshana Foundation, MakerGhat, Slam Out Loud and others, with student assessments by Educational Initiatives, the makers of ASSET. More at tomorrow-makers.in.
In every school, in every district, there are children who are well ahead of their class – curious, quick, hungry for harder problems. For a decade GenWise has worked with such students through its residential summer programmes and Gifted Lab, where at least a fifth of every residential cohort comes from less privileged backgrounds on full scholarships. But a scholarship seat at a time is not a system.
Tomorrow Makers is the system: a national talent search that finds these students wherever they are, and year-round pathways – STEM, invention and making, arts, endurance and service – that grow with them, shaped by their talent and effort rather than their circumstance. GenWise brings to its STEM track the same mentors and the same way of teaching that our fee-paying programmes are built on.
Students in Grades 6–8 register through the Tomorrow Makers platform and take a staged assessment designed by Educational Initiatives. The search runs nationally – the point is to find the child in a small town whose ability would otherwise go unnoticed.
The programme is funded by the Godrej Foundation. No student pays a fee at any stage – not for the assessment, not for the sessions.
Three sessions from the programme's opening cohort, for Grades 6–8.
Students direct a "computer" that does exactly what it is told – no more, no less – to reproduce a drawing using only words. Through repeated failures they invent sequence, reference points, definitions and measurement for themselves.
Area and perimeter, misconception-first: measure everyday objects, estimate irregular shapes, and generalise your own formulas – then spend the week noticing area in the world around you.
Sprout beans under different treatments, argue about what counts as a fair comparison, and meet control groups and messy real-world data – science as testable questions, not facts to memorise.
We are hiring the coaches and operations people who make this real, week after week – part-time and full-time, remote, anywhere in India.
