Dates Volunteer is Needed:
Description of the Volunteer Opportunity:
ReadWest has been serving the Rio Rancho and West Albuquerque communities for 25 years. ReadWest's mission is to provide quality, one-to-one tutoring to adults seeking to transform their lives through enhanced literacy skills. 40+ percent of adults in New Mexico read at or below a 5th grade level. The strongest indicator that a child will live in poverty is their parents don't have a HS diploma. Join a team of exceptional people who have a passion for Literacy.
Areas of Interest:
Advocacy and Human Rights
Board Development
Education and Literacy
Who Will Be Impacted Through This Project:
The community is strengthened when its members are able to improve their lives, get better jobs and take part in society. Children's lives improve dramatically when their parents are able to read and write, get a job or a better job, get the GED and more.
