This month, school starts for many children. Most students will pick up where they left off and easily pass standardized tests. But for children in poverty, many lack the resources to pass the reading proficiency test in third grade, which makes them at risk for falling behind and getting held back. We can't let children fall behind.

Join us in our efforts to break this cycle and give children the opportunity to reach their full potential. Visit www.Vello.org to learn about how you can get involved with Vello.

Vello Overview Vello is a 1-on-1 online tutoring program that connects passionate professionals with kids in their community to read together using super simple screen sharing and audio.

2018-2019 Vello Impact More students across Maricopa County love reading and are growing their skills thanks to Vello. This year students, teachers, and parents have continued to see improvement and success with this online tutoring program.

Tools and platforms alone cannot impact a classroom. But the power of connecting passionate professionals to students in real-time can. That's why we are so grateful for all of our sponsors. Because of them, our kids are able to read by fourth grade and grow into successful professionals. Thank you sponsors! Can't wait to create more Vello magic this school year! 😄
