Reading Tutor for at-risk children (1st-3rd grade):
In elementary education, students learn to read until the third grade and read to learn thereafter. Children who do not master reading by the end of the third grade will be at a disadvantage, and high school graduation rates can be predicted by third grade reading skills.
You can help at-risk Coastside children learn to read by investing just a few hours a week as a tutor. For more details, please contact Peter Lowenberg at lowenber@ix.netcom.com or Keith Terry at keith@coastsidehope.org

Mission Statement
Since 1976, Coastside Hope has been the organization where neighbors come together to help each other and take care of our community. Our goal today is to help our neighbors meet their most basic needs while helping every one of us reach our full potential. We accomplish this by providing three things: Necessities, Opportunities, Community.
