Everybody Wins! Vermont is a statewide, nonprofit, children’s literacy and mentoring program. The Middlebury Chapter of EW! VT mentors read with a child at Mary Hogan Elementary School during lunchtime, one day a week. Together, you explore books and literacy activities and build a meaningful friendship, within our school setting. You help a child build strong self-esteem, reading skills, and a lifelong love of books.

Consider filling out an application now to mentor a child starting in February OR sign up now so you can start up this Fall 2018. There is currently a waiting list of 3rd, 4th, 5th & 6th graders hoping for a reading mentor. The time commitment is less than one hour per week and is very flexible when mentors have other obligations and time commitments. The program only runs for 6.5 months, from October through April. Mentors and meet on either Tuesdays or Wednesdays, from either 11:30 to 12:15 or from 12:05 to 12:50.
