When: Tuesday evenings, October through April

For over 50 years, the Bryn Mawr Presbyterian Church Tutoring Program has served as a vibrant hub of learning, connection, and community. Every Tuesday night, 35 elementary students from North Philadelphia are paired with high school tutors from the western suburbs for one-on-one reading and writing support.

Together, students and tutors:

  • Build confidence in literacy
  • Bridge communities
  • Form meaningful, lasting friendships
