After school on TUES, WED and THURS ONLY!

FOCUS Detroit staff and volunteers are teaming up with Escuela Avancemos Academy (near Michigan Ave and Livernois) to tutor elementary age kids and teach students how to code! Learning how to code can teach children basic computer programming skills, problem solving techniques, and logic! Not only will we be helping students learn how to code, but also providing educational support by tutoring (helping kids read and complete homework). Join us!

FOCUS Detroit is a local nonprofit in affiliated with Eastern Orthodox Churches, started in 2015 to "Empower Detroit Children Experiencing Poverty to Succeed in School". We partner with elementary and middle schools, churches, businesses and other organizations to address childhood hunger, provided educational support and gather needed resources.
