Your support is working! Vision Academy grew in 2016! With your help we…
Served 20% more elementary school children than in 2015, nearly 75% of whom are low-income, at our popular chess and coding summer camp.
Increased our enrollment at our afterschool program by 15%. Also, our staff and mentors worked extremely hard to help our children improve their academic standing, with homework completions rates over 90% this year, up 7% from last year.
Our Vision Academy instructors brought chess to 13 public schools, where they organized 195 children into weekly chess clubs. Kids love us!
Help us keep this momentum going! Join us at our Power to Grow Event on April 8th from 6pm - 9pm at Heron Arts, 7 Heron Street, San Francisco CA 94103.
Last thing...Even if you can't attend, please consider making a tax-deductible donation today. Thank you for your ongoing support.
Yours truly,
Mario Paz and Kian Alavi
