We're Off To A Fresh Start!
Today was the premier day of the Rise Above Poverty Reading Clinic Spring 2025 Session. 7 Children were in attendance. As usual, there were surprises as we embrace children slighted by the Syracuse City School district. Education is tough work because you MUST show love. It is NOT for the faint of heart. We hear stories about our children advancing to new heights after their encounter with the RAP reading clinic. We hope to create a love of reading by modeling that love of reading. We have emblazoned the mantra of "Helping Kids Read to Succeed" on the hearts of the Reading Clinic Participants. Our volunteers are exceptional people committed to good social and personal change. They thank us for the opportunity, whilst we thank them for their commitment.
