Read United, together with the volunteers of our community, aims to close achievement gaps, increase graduation rates, and disrupt the cycle of poverty through two tutor-based programs: AARP Foundation Experience Corps and Read2Succeed.
If you’re looking for a recurring volunteer opportunity, Read United is a great option. Read United volunteers commit to tutoring 1-4 hours a week. The program runs early September to late April. For more information, about Read United check out their page.
