Your personal gift will help fund teacher training scholarships or free tutorial interventions for low-income students.

Boon’s online giving platform allows contributors across the country to come together and tackle our reading crisis by supporting individual teachers and students impacted by a broken education system—not “some day,” but “now.”

100% of donations to Boon’s two education programs go straight to those programs.
