Teachers Brigade supports students, teachers and adult caregivers by supporting programs that enrich, and empower a child's learning experience. We currently serve children in communities across Oregon
and Southwest Washington.
Never before have so many children been out of school at the same time, disrupting learning and upending lives, especially the most vulnerable and marginalized. The COVID-19 crisis has resulted in schools shut all across the world. Globally, over 1.2 billion children are out of the classroom.
In response to educational challenges surrounding COVID-19, and due to the success of our summer Book Fairy Reading Program, Teachers Brigade will be extending our summer reading program into the school year.
Reading is the key to fighting learning loss and maintaining a child's current grade level skills, and for pushing forward to develop skills above the current grade level. When children are not in school, children and especially those from under-resourced communities, tend to lose roughly 20 percent of the gains they made in reading during the previous school year.
Teachers Brigade is again partnering with the Book Fairy and her volunteers to deliver books to children living in the Portland Metro Area and Southwest Washington State. If you are a volunteer wanting to be a Book Fairy and deliver books and be a pen pal to children this school year, please signup to VOLUNTEER.
