Hurray for Learning Club Volunteers! Volunteers are vital partners toward fulfilling the mission at Learning Club. They embody the spirit of community care and mutual growth that makes Learning Club so special. As the school wraps up, we want to acknowledge the dedication, joy, and deep care that volunteers bring each and every week.

Learning Club is honored to be a recipient of the "Kids Win!" 2026 Education Grant from Baird! 38 organizations from across the nation were selected, and we couldn't be in better company. It is encouraging and affirming to see the incredible work being done to support students by all of the recipients.
Thank you to Kathleen Leith who is a Branch Administrative Supervisor at Baird in Leawood and has been a Learning Club tutor since 2017 for making this connection possible. And thank you to Baird for helping "Kids Win" every day at Learning Club!
