Be a Hero: Volunteer as a Reading Partner!

reading partnersAre you willing to share one hour each week with a student who is struggling to read?  Become a Reading Partner today!

Reading Partners is a nonprofit organization that recruits and trains community volunteers to provide one-on-one literacy tutoring to students who are struggling with reading. Tutors use a research-based curriculum, and program staff regularly assess students to benchmark and monitor student progress.

Devoting just one hour each week to a student can make a tremendous impact. Last year, 94% of Reading Partners’ Baltimore students improved their rate of learning in reading, and three out of four narrowed their achievement gap. This year, Reading Partners will serve at least 250 Baltimore students, so we need your help!
