Get to know us
ABLE Literacy Academy, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded by a passionate group of educators who are dedicated to transforming the lives of underserved children. Our mission is to create a nurturing and empowering environment where every child has the opportunity to thrive, regardless of their socioeconomic background.
As educators, we have witnessed firsthand the challenges that many students face due to socio-economic issues that can significantly hinder their progress. We have seen the fear and shame in their eyes when they struggle with problems they don't fully understand or know how to articulate. These children often go unnoticed in the system, falling through the cracks because they are either too afraid or too proud to ask for help. We understand that their experiences, though common in their world, are far from normal and often lead to a cycle of disadvantage that is difficult to break.
At ABLE Literacy Academy, we aim to be more than just educators; we strive to be mentors, role models, and extended family members who provide the support and guidance these children need. We understand the importance of filling the void in their lives, becoming the mother, father, uncle, aunt, big brother, or big sister they desperately need. We believe that education is not just about academics but also about building a community of care and trust around each child.
Many times, we have reached into our own pockets to provide for the basic needs of our students. Whether it's buying clothes, food, paying phone bills, or covering the cost of haircuts and hairstyling, we are committed to ensuring that our students have the essentials they need to feel confident and valued. We also provide tutoring and additional academic support to help them succeed in school and beyond.
Our work is driven by the belief that every child deserves a chance to reach their full potential, and we are here to make that possible. At ABLE Literacy Academy, we are committed to breaking down barriers, creating opportunities, and inspiring hope. We invite you to join us in our mission to change lives and build a brighter future for all children.
