Donate any amount to our grant request through the Orcas Island Community Foundation between May 1-18. Vist GiveOrcas to learn more about this online giving opportunity.

With your support, we will purchase AfterSchool KidzLit; a research-based, out-of-school time reading enrichment program, as well as hire a reading specialist. These steps will allow us to help expand literacy skills for 118 children age 7-12 who are enrolled in The Funhouse Afterschool Program.
