H.U.G. Reading Program connects struggling readers with community H.U.G. tutors who want to Help Us Grow strong students.
H.U.G. engages 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade students for an hour once a week with 1:1 tutoring in a virtual setting. Our mission is to provide both character development activities and reading support to help struggling readers become more productive students in the classroom. This is a pivotal time in their young lives to set their trajectory on a positive path.
H.U.G. engages volunteers to share their experience and wisdom with students by becoming a reading tutor and sharing our Be The Difference™ message. These experiences afford volunteers the opportunity to see first-hand how they are making a positive impact on the lives of children in our community.
H.U.G. operates in 7 counties across Kentucky and Florida and we’re seeing more and more progress with students, but it’s not only about them — our H.U.G. Tutors get so much value from investing energy into a child’s future. We promise to honor everyone’s time.
