Mission

Our mission is to provide FREE private reading tutoring to Black students from 3rd - 12th grade who are not reading at grade level.

We believe this will provide a great enhancement for their future ambition for high learning or other higher achievements in life.

Vision

Surveys have shown an extremely high rate of failure among Black students within our public education system. As a result of that reality, we believe our reading project will be a great benefit to our many communities throughout America.
