We are still accepting new volunteers.

Please, help us provide free basic skill-building and academic enhancement to at-risk children. Volunteers act as one-on-one tutors for children in grades 1-5. Our curriculum focuses on math, reading and language arts. All lessons, worksheets, learning games and materials are prepared by staff and ready for the volunteer tutor and student to work on together.

Our programs are designed to break through the barriers to education that many residents in our area face.

The Summer Program runs from 1pm-4pm on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays for 6 weeks. Even if you can help us out on just a few dates, we can use your help.

If you are thinking you are not qualified, do not worry. We provide training.

If you think someone else will is going to help, let that someone be you.
