History

Established in 2004.

Sharon Mor and Ed Caballero co-​founded Edventure More (EDMO), a 501©(3) non-​profit, out of a shared passion for inquiry-​based learning and personal growth. They wanted to create a space where learning felt like an adventure for both kids and staff. They also wanted participants in their programs to learn about the world around them; but more importantly learn about themselves in the process.

As a way to add to their own 20+ years of combined experience, Sharon and Ed sought partnership with the top Bay Area museums and children’s organizations. These enrichment partners were key in building curriculum, designing their programs, training staff, and helping the organization achieve its mission. Over the years, Edventure More has added all of the latest educational approaches and top advisors in each field to its curriculum development process.

Edventure More powers CAMP EDMO and all of its science, maker and technology summer camp and EDMO360 (School Year) programs.
