A tutoring and mentoring project that organizes professionals to volunteer to provide gifted, under-served children and youth with free classes and tutoring in visual art, music and homework help. Beyond developing the students creative talents, the goal is for the youth to feel seen and heard and for each parent to learn how best to help their children.
The WellMet grant will be used to expand programs and reach additional deserving students.
