World Possible is a non-profit organization that makes and distributes RACHEL (Remote Area Community Hotspot for Education and Learning), software that hosts offline free educational content such as Khan Academy, Wikipedia, Project Gutenberg and others via Wi-Fi on a Raspberry Pi computer.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] RACHEL is designed so that students or schools that don't have internet connections, but may already have devices (such as cellphones) that can receive data via wi-fi can access educational content via RACHEL as a server. Content has been tailored to meet locally-relevant demand.[10]
