Tutoring improves health and brain functions...for students AND volunteers!


Are you 55 or over?
Your life experience is needed!

When: Friday, August 5th 10am-12 noon
Where: Midtown Global Market, 920 E. Lake St.,Minneapolis


Less than 50% of Minneapolis students read at grade level by 8th grade. The good news: studies show volunteer tutors can improve a child’s success while decreasing their own risk of heart disease, increasing overall health and brain function.

RSVP of the Greater Twin Cities* is hosting a 55+ Meet & Greet for adults over the age of 55 interested in tutoring. Bring your friends, enjoy some light refreshments and learn more about local programs working to improve adult and child literacy in South Minneapolis! Reserve your spot today by calling Mary Jane Horton, RSVP Literacy Coordinator at 952.945.4163 or mhorton@voamn.org.
