Announcing $10,000 matching gift challenge in “Back to School” fundraising campaign

Thanks to a generous donor, donations will be doubled until October 30, helping us to raise an additional $10,000 in matching funds as we prepare to go “back to school” this fall.

As COVID-19 safety concerns persist, we are leveraging our partnerships across Boston and across the nation to deliver our program virtually this fall. The virtual program will be highly flexible and adaptable, offering students support whether they are fully remote, in-person, or on a staggered schedule. By working together with teachers and families, our volunteer literacy coaches will still be able to support students in their reading skills, provide them encouragement, and give them the opportunity to spend more time learning with a trusted and caring adult.
