Project Impact
Description
This club started an online reading program for students from K to grade 6. The program was provided as an after-school support for disadvantaged children struggling with academics. It is supported by a charitable arm so that access to the site can be offered to families to supplement children’s learning. Access to individualized tracking of progress can be offered to teachers or schools at a reasonable cost. This program is being used by over 304,000 learners in over 185 countries. Scarborough Rotary provides this resource as part of an after-school program to support struggling students.
