We're a global online visual communications platform on a mission to empower the world to design. Featuring a simple drag-and-drop user interface and a vast range of templates ranging from presentations, documents, websites, social media graphics, posters, apparel to videos, plus a huge library of fonts, stock photography, illustrations, video footage, and audio clips, anyone can take an idea and create something beautiful on Canva on any device, from anywhere in the world.
Since our launch in 2013, we’ve had the crazy big goal of making design accessible to everyone. We were founded on the belief that people shouldn't need to understand complex software to unlock their creativity. We’re leveling the playing field and democratizing access to design and visual communication by empowering 100% of the world to communicate in a way that was once limited to the 1%.
We've always had a deeper mission surrounding Canva — which we talk about as our 'simple' two-step plan: to build one of the world’s most valuable companies, and to do the most good we possibly can. We're committed to our core value of Being a Force for Good, so as the value of our company grows, so too does our ability to have a positive impact on the world.
“The standard for excellence in children’s books” — Forbes
Barefoot Books creates picture books, activity decks, board books, animated singalongs and educational content for children aged 0-12, covering themes including early learning & concept building, social-emotional learning, global awareness, health & wellness, and sustainability & STEAM. Their popular singalong videos available on YouTube have garnered nearly half a billion views. Barefoot’s highly-anticipated Autumn 2023 Catalog consists of over 20 new titles including the Kirkus starred reviewed and graphic-novel-adjacent picture book, Stranded!, as well as five new additions to their critically-acclaimed Our World series that follows days in the lives of children around the world. This series will also be included in the collection of dual-language editions Barefoot plans to release in Spring 2024, with each book translated into the language native to the country it features. Our proudest accomplishment in our 30 year journey is to have put nearly 30 million books into the hands of children around the world.

Our values
Wonderbly's values were born from the three enduring qualities at the heart of Lost My Name, our original bestselling children's book: Courage, Curiosity and Kindness.
Courage means taking calculated risks and trying things no one else would. Setting audacious goals, seeing them through, and being willing to be wrong.
Curiosity means investing in learning and never losing sight of why. It allows us to ask the obvious questions, explore our blind spots, and draw inspiration from other disciplines.
Kindness is the Wonderbly heart. It means making space for one another, inclusivity as standard, and clear, direct communication.
