Worth Every Penny
With its broad scope and large geographic region, the Three Rivers Literacy Initiative costs more than $5M per year to implement. (Tutoring alone costs nearly $25,000 per hour!) We make every dollar count. Thanks to our partnerships, both private and public, we can provide books, literacy resources, family literacy events, teacher professional development, and tutoring in 84 districts throughout 4 states. Our service region includes 90,000 school age children who benefit through this initiative.
Primary funding comes from the federal Innovative Approaches to Literacy program.
