Student and Volunteer Success Stories

"When I was in elementary school, reading felt impossible. I was always behind, and it made me feel like I'd never catch up," shared Alex, a former student of one of our educators. "But everything changed when I joined the literacy program. My facilitator believed in me and showed me how to break down words and understand stories. By middle school, I could read on my own and even started helping my younger siblings with their homework.

In high school, I kept improving, and by my senior year, I was excelling in English and earned a scholarship to college. Now, as a first-year college student, I see how important those early years were. I'm studying to become a teacher so I can give back and help others like me. This program didn't just teach me to read—it gave me the confidence to believe in myself and dream big."
