    • Use peer tutors to explain concepts in different words.

Cost Info

Families only pay a $10 donation fee once a month. If families are not able to afford the $10 donation fee, students are still allowed to attending tutoring. The donation fee will continue to allow our non-profit organization to get supplies needed for the students.

Student and Volunteer Success Stories

We had a 9th grade student that came to use to receive before and after school tutoring. He struggled with keeping up in his online classes due to COVID. When he first started coming to our program he had all F's in his classes. He worked very hard to pull up his grades to a B average in a timely matter. He is now one of our peer tutors assisting other students who are struggling.
