Monthly gifts give children sustained one-on-one tutoring.

70% of the children attending schools in Oakland’s poorest neighborhoods are two or more grade levels behind. They need to learn reading and math skills now, before it’s too late.

Your monthly gift to Children Rising gives these kids a chance to rise to their God-given potential! And it can be easier for your budget and ours!

To provide critical one-on-one reading and math tutoring, we are looking for a small group of caring individuals from the Bay Area who can afford $1.66 per day to help children thrive in school.

When you make a monthly gift today, all first-year monthly gifts UP TO $20,000 will be matched by a couple of generous donors.
