Expanding literacy access in Tulsa
Â鶹·¬Íâ became part of the Tulsa educational landscape in 2013, when we first began placing community volunteers in under-resourced schools to help kids master basic reading skills. Our one-on-one tutoring model empowers students to succeed in reading and life by engaging community volunteers to provide individualized, personal attention to each student in our program.

“It warms my heart to see my student’s face light up with excitement when I tell her that it is time for Â鶹·¬Íâ. It is truly an amazing program that I am happy to be part of.â€
