This is an organization that helps refugee students in Milwaukee to be more fluent in English and provide resources to succeed. We directly serve students ranging from kindergarten through college.

We have sessions on Tuesdays from 6-8pm and Saturdays from 10am-noon

We encourage volunteers of all ages to help! Our students range from kindergarten through college. You don't need to have any special training to help these wonderful students, they are learning and practicing English and appreciate the help!

This is an optional program for our students, meaning they attend because they sincerely want to improve. They want to succeed in the classroom, make new friends, and understand our culture.

Our students show real improvement over short periods of time. Sign up and volunteer to give more students the opportunity to do better in school and in making friends.

Our Program meets:

Tuesdays 6:00 - 8:00pm

Saturdays 10:00am - noon

You can choose which day you would like to volunteer or choose to volunteer on both days if you would like.
