Other schools have asked for doubles as well. We had an excellent response from two published articles about Tutors for Kids but we still need more.

Thanks and we will keep you posted.

I got the same email. I was so impressed by the Guidance Counselor from one of our local schools that came to our village meeting and told us what a difference we Villagers were making with our help from Backpack programs to volunteering with the kids.

PLEASE think about helping. Just reading to them. It may be the first time someone did that other than their teachers.
