We host monthly happy hours, and encourage others to plan events to bring the community together.
Who we work with
Raising Hands Tutoring
Started in 2018 in Highland Park, New Jersey, Raising Hands Tutoring is an educational non-profit on a mission to decrease the achievement gap that exists for underserved children by providing high quality reading instruction in the classroom and free tutoring outside of the classroom to our neediest students.
We achieve this by offering local teachers access to a costly training and certification program with a nationally recognized, evidence-based reading program. Once trained, teachers are equipped to apply the program in their classes and provide free individualized after school tutoring to at-risk, struggling readers who require a more intensive intervention experience. Our provision of free tutoring is unique to our program and a critical aspect of our mission.
