Since 1980 the generous contributions of our donors have allowed us to provide tutoring at no cost to our students. These donations have enabled us to expand and improve a vital service to the community. Our support comes from individuals, community organizations, and charitable foundations. No donation is too small. In the past two years donations have purchased laptops and literacy software. This website was made possible through a grant by Verizon.
