Corporate Volunteer Programs

Individual Volunteer Programs

WITS offers tutoring programs for both INDIVIDUALS and CORPORATIONS. Our programs reintroduce community members to their schools, provide teachers and principals with needed support, and give children the skills they need to succeed.

Over the years, WITS has been endorsed by Former President Bill Clinton, Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley, U.S. Secretary of Education and former CPS CEO Arne Duncan, former Secretary of State Colin Powell, former U.S. Secretary of Education Richard Riley and the Chicago Public School Reform Team.

Following our simple equation - one adult, one child, one book at a time - WITS programs promote literacy and the love of reading among Chicago's youth. Whether through one-on-one tutoring or working in small groups with students, our volunteers make a measurable impact!
