Our Mission

The Philadelphia Literacy Initiative connects caring volunteer tutors with K-4 students who need extra support in reading. Through one-on-one and small group sessions, we're building confident readers and brighter futures.

Volunteer-Driven

Our dedicated volunteers, many of them seniors, bring patience, experience, and genuine care to every tutoring session, creating meaningful connections.

Data-Informed

We track progress carefully using evidence-based methods to ensure each student receives the personalized support they need to thrive.

School Partnerships

We collaborate directly with Philadelphia schools to identify and support students who will benefit most from additional reading guidance.
