For the Tutoring Project, WCWT will facilitate the search for and training of tutors from local colleges and hurches to provide the instruction. Computers, school supplies, and furniture are needed. Other opportunities include the development of a support group for the parents and providing snacks.

Our city isn’t an easy place in which to grow up, even in the best of circumstances. Help light a beacon of hope for the students.
