Over the past few years, we’ve seen how a single act of support can ripple through entire families. With just a few donations, our founder’s volunteer hours, and the generosity of our partners, Trendy Educational Services (TES) has reached families who once struggled to access quality tutoring or literacy support.

Today, we’re proud to share that your contributions have fueled real growth — and a new home for learning. The Grand Opening of the TES Community Hub in Southern New Jersey will allow us to serve families both in person and onlineSince 2021, we’ve invested over $2,300 of founder funding, and developed our LitLadder Reading Program to provide low to no-cost literacy support. Now, we’re ready to grow that impact — training more tutors, reaching more families, and sustaining our new community hub.

Your gift fuels the fight against illiteracy.
Help us reach our $30K goal to expand free tutoring, workshops, and literacy resources — virtually and in person.
