About Us

Innovation Uprising was born from a deeply personal connection to Jamaica and a transformative moment of clarity. During a trip to his mother's homeland, our founder Cassius Famolaro had the opportunity to tutor local students and witnessed firsthand the INFINITE potential that lay within these bright young minds.

What began as a tutoring experience quickly evolved into a mission: to tap into this vast reservoir of talent and creativity that too often goes unrecognized. Cassius observed how these students—when given the right tools, guidance, and encouragement—could develop remarkable skills and insights in STEM fields.

Our team is driven by the belief that technological literacy and engineering skills are pathways to both personal achievement and community development. We've made it our purpose to spark interest in these fields through engaging, hands-on programs that make complex concepts accessible and exciting.

Innovation Uprising represents more than just education—it's about igniting a movement where young people recognize their own capabilities and are empowered to use technology as a force for positive change. Our logo, featuring the infinity symbol, represents our core belief: the potential within every student is truly limitless.

Through our work, we aim to bridge educational gaps, inspire the next generation of innovators, and create a ripple effect of opportunity that extends far beyond our classrooms. Join us as we unlock this infinite potential, one student at a time.
