In order to keep the cost of our classes low, we rely on financial support to continue our 20+ year success in providing English classes to our immigrant neighbors.
Each year, almost 2,000 students across Northern Virginia build their English language skills in our programs, assisted by thousands of hours contributed by our volunteers.
How does your donation help?
Our program provides:
- centralized services for member churches
- radio and print ads to reach students
- recruitment of new volunteer teachers and assistants
- …and teacher training by ESL professionals.
Each dollar we can save our member programs allows them to spend more on student textbooks and teacher supplies, and to provide more scholarships for students who cannot afford the tuition fees.
