Our Story: Journey Through Time

Discover the vision and the dedicated individuals propelling the Time Traveler Fund into the future.

Who We Are

The Time Traveler Fund is a visionary non-profit organization established in 2025 in Longview, Texas. We are a new, fast-growing entity with an ambitious mission: to revolutionize education by blending history, technology, and imaginative storytelling.

Our core belief is that learning should be an adventure. Through cutting-edge AR and VR experiences, inspirational narratives, and community engagement, we transform traditional education into captivating "edutainment." We make history tangible, science exciting, and the future accessible to all.

Every product we create and every dollar we raise is channeled towards empowering schools, honoring veterans, and strengthening families, providing them with tools that cultivate courage, creativity, and character. We strive to remind the world that time is our most invaluable resource, and how we utilize it defines our legacy.

The Visionary Behind the Voyage

Jeffrey J. "Bishop"

Founder, Time Traveler Fund

"Time is our most precious gift, and what we do with it defines us."

Jeffrey J. "Bishop" is the imaginative force who founded the Time Traveler Fund. With a profound passion for history and a keen eye for innovation, Bishop envisioned a world where learning transcends textbooks and becomes an immersive, unforgettable adventure. His leadership and creative spirit guide our mission to inspire purpose, pride, and possibility in communities, starting right here in East Texas and expanding across the nation.

Our Purpose & Promise

At the heart of the Time Traveler Fund lies a powerful dual purpose: to address critical societal challenges and to ignite a movement of discovery and empowerment.

Addressing Key Challenges

Educational Disengagement: We combat outdated lessons by making history, science, and personal growth vibrant through AR/VR edutainment.
Disconnection and Division: We foster unity through shared stories, experiences, and patriotic inspiration, reminding everyone of what binds us.
Lack of Purpose and Hope: Our programs instill self-belief, responsibility, and gratitude, helping individuals rediscover their purpose and role in shaping the future.

Our Enduring Promise

Our commitment extends to three core groups:

Students & Schools: Immersive AR/VR educational adventures to make learning exciting and accessible, especially in underserved areas.
Veterans & First Responders: Care packages, recognition, and virtual experiences celebrating courage, sacrifice, and enduring legacy.
Families & Communities: Opportunities to learn and dream together through unique activities and outreach, strengthening bonds and shared educational journeys.

We're transforming technology, imagination, and history into powerful tools that educate, unite, and inspire.

Our Journey So Far & Beyond

From our humble beginnings in East Texas, specifically focusing on Longview, Kilgore, and surrounding communities, the Time Traveler Fund has already achieved significant milestones and harbors grand ambitions.

Key Achievements
