About us | Together, we will eradicate the epidemic of illiteracy for our nation’s children. Our intensive one-on-one tutoring program transforms students’ lives. Our proven methods have unlocked the miracle and power of reading and opened a whole new world and future to those who need it most. We developed this model by partnering with principals and schools in Detroit since 2002, to work with children who were farthest behind to get them reading at grade level. Our holistic literacy programming also engages mentors, art and writing to help students in vulnerable communities learn to read. This intervention has transformed thousands of lives. |
