Our programs

Five programs. One block.

Every program answers the same question: what would Tampa look like if Black kids grew up with the tutors, books, capital, and food they deserve?

Weekly · Virtual · K–12

Power Hour

Two hours. Homework, study skills, and a mentor in the chair beside you.

A weekly two-hour virtual tutoring session for Tampa students. Kids bring what they're stuck on; volunteers bring patience and a laptop — building study habits, confidence, and consistent academic support.

  • Weekly two-hour virtual tutoring blocks

Impact

Grew out of Charlea Bing's free tutoring in Hillsborough County elementary schools and now runs year-round online, so a student's zip code or ride situation never decides whether they get help.

How to participate

Families sign up for a weekly seat; volunteers commit two hours a week on Zoom.

How to support

$25 covers materials and one student's tutoring block.
