Are you an early bird who loves to read? As a Morning Reading volunteer, you will help students practice their reading, vocabulary, and comprehension skills. Literacy Buddies will work with an individual or small group of students on a weekly basis at Adams Elementary School every Wednesday morning from 7:30am-8:30am.
In order for students to form a healthy and trusting realtionship with their literacy buddy, we ask that you volunteer at least twice a month.

Mission Statement
Mission: St. Louis' mission is to empower people to transform their lives, families and neighborhoods. We are committed to transforming the city of St. Louis by connecting individuals/groups to communities in need through education, empowerment, and economic development.
Description
Education
Mission: St. Louis believes education is the primary imperative in the empowerment and development of both individuals and communities. Through education, we can work along side individuals to inspire and develop indigenous leadership.
Empowerment
Mission: St. Louis seeks to empower people to grow and develop in all aspects of their lives. Empowerment means engaging people as equals, not as dependents of charity. To do this, we enter into dynamic interpersonal relationships based on mutual respect, trust, integrity, grace and compassion. Through empowerment, we are able to work together in achieving personal and community pride based on a regenerated sense of worth.
Development
Mission: St. Louis desires to develop people and communities holistically through economic and spiritual development. Lasting, authentic change only happens from the inside out. This means that we must work to bring about long-term change in both economic and spiritual spheres. We believe this can only come from building trust through authentic relationships.
