EDUCATION
Access to education is challenging for children living in remote areas. Resources are scarce and travel to and from school is mostly by foot. We partner with New York City based “Read Nation” to improve access to education via tablets that support students’ intellectual development. For the first time, our students have access to english speaking tutors and can interact with native english speakers.

READ NATION
Non-profit student-run organization Read Nation is dedicated to helping children develop a passion for reading. Throughout the week, students participate in two to three 45-minute classes. In addition to providing individual lessons, our dedicated volunteers also lead small groups in which students read classic children's books. To optimize learning and ensure that all students receive adequate attention, our small group sessions maintain a maximum student to teacher ratio of 4:1. We also offer one on one math and English tutoring services for students from kindergarten to 5th grade and beyond.
