Entering the second half of the academic year, the Learn To Be Foundation has continued its commitment to underserved schools. Director of Education & Outreach, Bruce Dos Santos, has made it a priority to create new, lasting partnerships with multiple schools in the greater Los Angeles area. Most recently, the Foundation has established a partnership with the UCLA Community School located in Los Angeles.
In addition, due to the overwhelming response of new tutor applications, the Foundation's Certified Tutoring team has grown to a large pool of diverse, talented and willing tutors. Our expansion has not been able to keep up with the interest that has been pouring in from tutors across the country and in order to ensure that we are able to train and provide new tutors with the opportunity to work with deserving students, we need your continued support.
January 2010 also marked the departure of Executive Director, Lynn Penkingcarn, who has moved on to pursue other opportunities. Learn To Be is very thankful for all that she has done and wishes her the very best in her future endeavors. In light of her departure, Bruce Dos Santos will take on much of the day-to-day operations. The organization as a whole is proud of the work completed thus far but realizes there is much more to do. Learn To Be looks forward to tackling these upcoming challenges and making a difference in students' lives. Please stay tuned as Learn To Be works to implement its free online tutoring service in after-school programs over the next several months.
If you are interested in having the Learn To Be Foundation work with your school or organization, please contact Bruce Dos Santos (
