Student and Volunteer Success Stories

"I never thought I'd be able to help my child with schoolwork, but this program changed everything. Learning alongside my child has not only improved my own confidence but has also strengthened our bond. Now, we read together every night, and I see how excited they are to learn. It's incredible to see both of us growing together." Parent of a third grade student.
