Overview
Mission
A Time 2 Read is a partnership with local school districts to strengthen 2nd-grade students and enable them to enter third-grade reading on grade level. A Time 2 Read takes an active role in the development of children in public schools through the presence of volunteers focused on literacy. Our volunteers serve for 1 hour a week during the school day supporting two 2nd-grade students, one each for 30 minutes using a simple sight word approach. We also provide books through the summer backpack program for the students to enhance literacy while not in school. We tutor 2nd grade students, not just to invest in their reading skills but to impact them for life. These consistent weekly sessions with the same adult provides them with encouragement and support that makes them feel valued and empowered. The organization has expanded to provide support for all four elementary schools and their staff. A Time 2 Read also offers senior scholarships for students attending college.
What it reported doing in 2025
Salaries for one full time employee and 3 contract employees that run and manage the program. These employees facilitate pre and post testing to determine students in the program as well as the results. Employees and contract workers are essential for being the face on each of the 4 campuses as we show up throughout the week for tutoring. They each manage their own campus communicating with teachers, administration, and volunteers.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 94% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Hybrid. The nonprofit split its reported program spending across 76% for direct work, and 24% for grants.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
