Grow Your World (GYW) has transitioned its services from in-person to virtual in the midst of social distancing measures required by COVID-19. This virtual transition enables GYW to provide tutoring and mentoring services to middle school students, as well as tutoring to elementary schoolers, throughout the U.S.
Youths participating in GYW can choose any combination of weekly tutoring sessions in standard academic subjects, while also exploring non-traditional programs such as goal management skills, mindfulness and stress reduction skills, community service, arts and crafts, and identity caucuses. All programs are pay-what-you-can and design-your-own-schedule.
GYW has recruited twenty students from UNC Chapel Hill to serve as tutors and mentors for these youths in the areas of their expertise. Services are provided in both English and Spanish. Enrollment is now open.
Grow Your World is a nonprofit organization based in the Triangle of North Carolina. We provide tutoring and mentoring services to elementary and middle school students. All of our programs are youth-led. Our core competencies include resilience, racial equity, teamwork, and self-reflection. Our mission is to create intergenerational connections that benefit people, communities, and the planet. For more information visit http://www.growyourworld.org/onlinegyw.html.
