Remember being read to as a child? Listening to a story and looking at the pages with your reader? We would like to be able to provide that experience to our parents and their learners. 96% of the families we serve speak Spanish.

We woud like to provide them with Spanish language book to read to their child. We have a document camera and are in need of helpers to scan book or to translate them when they are scanned.

Can you help us?

About Learning Home Volunteers

Location:

633 Quarry Road, Suite D, San Carlos, CA 94070, US

Mission Statement

Learning Home Volunteers' mission is to improve educational outcomes for low-income children by transforming their home into a center of learning and their parents into agents of change for their child's educational growth.

Description

20% of the nation's children live in poverty. This effects their educational outcomes. 70% of them enter school unprepared. 50% will read at below grade level throughout their schooling. 30% will eventually drop out of high school. In our community the situation is even worse: 80% enter school unprepared and 73% are reading below grade level at 3rd grade. After 3rd grade, all learning is book based making it difficult to keep up if you can't read well.

Our program works with parents to help them prepare their child for kindergarten. Through training they learn how to support their child's learning through the use of learning materials design, built, and packaged by our experts. We are changing outcomes for under-served communities in San Mateo County. Joins us. Change the future - one child at a time!
