The Kids Can't Wait to See You!


Thanks to all of you who came out to our mandatory orientations this past week! We had over 200 people come! If you missed them, please sign up for one in October here- they will be held on Oct. 10 and 12. You must attend an orientation (and then register) in order to tutor this year. 

This year, our main goal at San Diego Refugee Tutoring is commitment. We have seen over the years that our program runs best with committed tutors. It makes a very real difference. If you haven't already, please go and sign up for at least three sessions in the next month. And, if you do sign up, please do your best to keep your commitment. We count on you and so do our kids.


Help Us Stock Up!

As we cleaned out our cupboards and got organized last week, we realized we could use a few things. If you feel compelled to help us stock up for the year, please bring one of the following items to tutoring in the next two weeks and give them to a lead tutor (examples of some items are linked):
  • Ticonderoga pencils, sharpened 
  • Antibacterial wipes (to clean desks)
  • box of Kleenex 
  • Fun pencils such as these
  • Reward stickers such as these
  • Expo dry erase markers (red, green, blue and/or black only), chisel or fine tip
  • Erasers (small, fun ones)
  • Boys socks: Medium and Large
  • Boys Underwear: XS, S, M, and L
  • Girls socks: Medium and Large
  • Girls Underwear: XS, S, M, L
  • Payless Shoes gift cards of any amount (so we can buy our kids pairs of shoes when needed)
We are looking for some used clothes that are in good shape, but not all sizes (we have limited storage). We need:
  • Boys: XS pants 
  • Boys: S pants
  • Boys: Large sweatshirts or light jackets
  • Boys: XL sweatshirts or light jackets
  • Girls: Medium short or long- sleeved shirts
  • Girls: Large short or long-sleeved shirts
  • Girls: Medium or Large shorts
  • Girls: Large pants
These also can be given to a lead tutor. Thanks in advance!

New Way to GIVE!
 


Our incredible volunteer WebMaster, Matt Cromwell, has created a new webpage that we can accept donations from. Please check it out! Our program runs only because of donations from folks like you, so thanks!
Thanks to Alla & Eastridge Group!

Thanks to the very generous donations from Alla and her colleagues over at the Eastridge Group. They supplied us with all items needed to make new folders for our kids as well as many educational games, supplies and a large cash donation. We are so grateful for your partnership!
