Literacy is the gateway to academic success

Our Mission
Parentis Foundation seeks to address a major contributor to poverty – the inability of children to read proficiently by the end of third grade. Through an intergenerational approach, we provide both older adult volunteer tutor/mentors and children with opportunities to enrich their lives, build self-confidence, and share a sense of purpose through literacy.
Our Volunteers Make A World Of Difference
Early literacy intervention leads to fluency proficiency and improved reading comprehension. By working with our young learners to develop these skills, we open up opportunities for academic success and greater independence throughout life.
