For as little as $4.67 an hour, we provide a 30-hour reading program that enhances struggling readers' phonetic skills, critical for mastery of English proficiency. Our program proves to significantly increase reading skills from a minimum of 76% up to 129%, which is equivalent to seven months of classroom instruction.
Imagine being unable to read a warning label, a job application, or a love letter. For approximately 32 million U.S. adults, this is a real scenario. The National Commission on Adult Literacy maintains that the high U.S. adult illiteracy rate directly corresponds with the 1 in 4 American children who grow up without learning how to read.
Sponsor a program for a child for $140 and give the gift of literacy! We invite you to join us at their graduation and you can witness the magic firsthand.
