Our Three Pillars
OUR THREE PILLARS
The Earhart Club has three overarching pillars that work together to emphasize building genuine human connections between children and their peers and their guardians. Through deliberately nurturing curiosity and understanding we inspire children to be empowered to be their authentic selves.
Curiosity
Understanding
Empowerment
All kids are born endlessly curious. Being curious allows us to understand the world around us and where we fit in it. Curiosity is at the root of lifelong learning, which allows to grow and evolve. Our goal is to fan the flames of this natural curiosity in children and reignite dormant curiosity in adults.
“I love the early process of asking questions about a story and deciding which questions matter most.” – Diane Sawyer
This pillar is nourished by curiosity. Children who are curious about the people and the world around them seek to understand them without pre-existing assumptions. Children with a desire to understand are also equipped with empathy and compassion allowing them to build stronger connections with those around them.
“You never really understand a person until you consider things from their point of view.” – Harper Lee
The Earhart Club fosters self-discovery for children helping them form the bedrock of who they are. Children with a strong sense of self will feel empowered to be caring, responsible citizens. When challenged with new ideas and beliefs they will be able to think critically about how that aligns with who they are. Empowered children will have a strong voice that can be used to not only lift themselves up but also others.
“I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did. but people will never forget how you made them feel.” – Maya Angelou

Curiosity
Our kids are born endlessly curious and endlessly self assured. Being curious allows us to understand the world around us and where we fit in it. Curiosity is at the root of lifelong learning, keeps us young and humble. Curiosity allows us to grow and evolve as our understanding expands.
