Help Portland Area Students Fall in Love with Reading

Your gift connects older adult tutors with young readers who need extra support — and right now, your impact doubles.

$120 keeps one student and their tutor reading together for a full month.

Every dollar helps a child gain confidence, skill, and joy through one-on-one reading time.

Across the Portland metro area, MFS Experience Corps volunteers — older adults trained through the AARP Foundation — meet one-on-one with students who need extra help learning to read.

Those quiet moments at the table — sounding out new words, sharing stories, laughing together — help children believe in themselves. They build skills that open doors for a lifetime.

Your gift makes that connection possible.

And right now, thanks to a $1,500 matching challenge, your gift goes twice as far.

💚 Give today to keep the pages turning for Portland students.
