Nottingham Youth Center's Tutoring Program needs your help
What can I do?
I've asked that at times. What can I do to help? There is so much need around and my resources are so low: little money, no extra time, my own family to care for!! How can I help lift up the neighborhood when I have so little?
Denise Wright and Mike Clark may help me answer by having so little themselves and yet helping so much. They recently moved to the neighborhood, don't own a car, don't have steady jobs, but give what they can to help out. So they joined the Nottingham Youth Center and now head the tutoring program. About 10 elementary kids twice a week and only 3 or 4 adults at a time. Some of the children need one to one attention but that can be difficult without a couple more helpers. Mike and Denise give what they have but they can only stretch themselves so far.
What can I do to help? I can help a kid with her homework once a week. It is amazing how much that means to the child and it is good for me too! And it helps the adults that are already there to work more effectively. All it costs is two hours once a week. I guess I can do that. How about you? Call 216-486-7612 for more info!!!
