GREENWICH UNITED WAY – READING CHAMPIONS

Greenwich United Way Reading Champions, in partnership with the Greenwich Public Schools, is a literacy program pairing Greenwich youth with trained community volunteers in an effort to build fluency skills during the school year. Since 2008, Reading Champions volunteers have assisted over 3,000 children in achieving individual reading goals in fluency. By enabling students to obtain immediate feedback and receive one-on-one personal attention, the program has been a resounding and proven success. In conjunction with the Greenwich Public School reading curriculum, Reading Champions contributes to the development and growth of students’ fluency. Volunteer tutors are trained, no teaching experience is needed, and tutoring opportunities are always available.

  1. Good Afternoon-
    I am hoping that we would be able to find an opportunity for about 20 of our seventh graders to come and volunteer. Are there opportunities for this age group (12-14)?
    This would be during the school day, so they would have teachers with them. Feb.2nd and 3rd.
    Thank you,
    Logan Stamey
