Give the gift of literacy this back to school season
Help stock a reading center before tutoring begins!
Each of our reading centers needs hundreds of books, literacy materials, and other supplies to fuel student learning. Ensuring students have access to plenty of books, supplies, and other literacy materials, will enable them to hit the ground running right when tutoring starts.
Every gift makes a difference
$25 buys five books that students can take home with them so they can practice reading on their own
$50 provides two students with a collection of diverse books
$100 funds literacy support packets for two students and their families for a year
$250 provides enhanced and culturally responsive training for one tutor
$500 provides a year of technology access for a tutor and student
$1,000 helps stock a reading center with curriculum materials and supplies to support weekly tutoring sessions
