Our Founder
Koti Reddy is a tech entrepreneur and a venture capitalist.. For more than 20 years, he has dedicated himself to philanthropy, driven by a deep passion for improving education across India—especially in rural areas. His journey began in his own village, where he established a computer learning center to give children free access to digital skills. Building on this success, he went on to equip government schools with computers and essential learning resources. Today, his vision is to expand these efforts nationwide, ensuring that every child in India has the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive.
Together we can make a difference.

Our Mission
India spends only 1/15th of what other developed countries are spending per student in government schools. That is why the literacy rate is very low in India
We want to change that. But we need your help.
Our mission is to provide classrooms across the globe with the tools necessary to elevate the learning experience and keep kids in school.
We believe it’s important to be a force for good. Guided by our core values, Upgrade My Classroom takes action by setting a standard of excellence.
Nurturing
Everything we do is rooted in our passion to help tomorrow’s generation succeed. As a mission-oriented culture, we work with teachers, administrators, and students alike to foster connection, inspire learning, and engage communities.
Empowering
We believe in the motivating power of affecting change. We strive to elevate the learner’s journey by giving kids the supplies necessary to excel in school and the skills required to succeed in life.
Focused
Our strength is in our shared purpose to make education accessible to all. We are committed to giving back to the communities where we live and work through creating uplifting classroom experiences to help better motivate kids to learn.
Transparent
