About GoGoNews

GoGoNews was born out of a desire to inform children of the world around them in an educational and non-threatening way. Since its inception in 2006, GoGoNews has provided children with general knowledge, as well as a consciousness and awareness of the world, regardless of geography or culture.

GoGo has always operated with the singular mission to educate, expose and entertain the little minds in our lives - one day at a time. GoGoNews provides parents and educators with subject matter to start a conversation with children and a safe means by which to deal with the harsh realities of the world in which we live. Most importantly, GoGoNews is fun!
