Abstract
"99.3% of teachers report that their Kids Hope USA students improved in academics, attendance, behavior, and attitude." Imagine the impact one child will have with one caring and highly trained mentor for one hour each week. As class sizes increase and budgets decrease, fewer adults are capable of connecting with students in order to make a positive immediate difference. Through Kids Hope USA, mentors are matched with individual students for additional emotional and academic support.
