Helping DC Students Reach Their Full Potential
Since 1962, Community Club has paired DC public school students with caring adult tutors — one-on-one, all year long. Every session is free. Every student matters.
Learning Thrives Through Relationships
Since 1962, Community Club has helped DC public school students build their academic skills, prepare for college and career, and become confident, successful adults.
We believe in one powerful idea: a long-term, caring, one-on-one relationship between a student and a dedicated adult makes all the difference.
