Delivering the power of education through one-to-one tutoring

Our Vision
Brighter futures for all of Chicago’s children
 

Our Values
Education is empowering. We believe that through one-to-one relationships with supportive tutors, students facing economic barriers can access brighter futures. Our mission, programs and delivery are centered in these values. We believe that all children regardless of economics, race, cultural background, gender identity or neighborhood are valuable, capable of greatness and have the right to the following:

• A diverse representation of supportive adults who know them as individuals, value their needs and aspirations, and expose pathways for their success
• Abundant exposure to knowledge, effective instruction, high quality resources, and critical technology
• A secure sense of belonging and community that contributes to a healthy growth mindset
• Accessible learning environments where role models are plentiful and a positive relationship with learning is encouraged
