The Learning Center - The Love to Learn Foundation

THE LOVE TO LEARN FOUNDATION

Our Mission
The Love To Learn Foundation will be established to provide scholarships to children and families who may not otherwise have the means to afford quality child care, assessments and counseling, tutoring, school supplies, and other family services that transform lives. Our unique program works to promote self-sufficiency, confidence, leadership skills, and a sense of family that inspire the children to become real contributors to their local and global communities. Programs are o Love To Learn

ffered free-of-charge to at-risk and homeless youth, from the ages of 5 through 17.

The Need
Many in our society are often surprised by the number of economically deprived children who needlessly suffer emotionally, psychologically, and, quite often, physically, from the environment in which they must live and endure on a daily basis. So called “at-risk” and “latch key” children exist within Pullman, Moscow and the extended Palouse Region. Despite programs through the public schools, state and county children’s services, and related agencies, there are many families who do not qualify for those services. Children leave school and are unable to attend after school programs. Children are afflicted with learning disabilities that are not diagnosed because the families cannot afford the assessments. Social and behavioral problems persist because affordable counseling is not available. Children who need tutoring fall behind in school because parents cannot always afford the extra cost of teachers outside the school. As we began bringing children into The Learning Center, a private child care facility in Pullman, Washington that specializes in exceptional learning and exceptional care, we realized how quick, transforming, and truly life-changing the results really were when children who did not normally have access to such care were given the opportunity. The Learning Center provides care to these children gratis, and in those children’s faces we found the reward for providing such care. If The Love to Learn Foundation can provide services to these children and families we may well interrupt the great risk of perpetuating cycles of poverty, loss of educational and career opportunities, and the despair in which they are growing up.
