As part of our Study Buddy program, we will pair you with a child who needs your help with academics. You will be responsible for meeting with that child for four hours a month to provide academic help, support, motivation, and more. With the support of We Stand For Kids throughout the entire process, you will be able to see your Study Buddy improve by being given access to an academic tracking tool.
Each youth is provided with the opportunity to achieve academic excellence through attendance in our afterschool program. With the ongoing support of volunteers and the determination of the child, our youth are able to improve academically by at half a grade level. Youth are also provided with life skills training from local outreach groups as well as participation in recreational activities.
