Our vision is now becoming a reality with the partnership created with the Final Third Foundation’s after school soccer and literacy programs. At the end of 2023, Mindful Literacy Columbus will no longer be alive, but our vision will very much be living and breathing within F3!
About the Work
From 2020-2023 Mindful Literacy Columbus was a 501C3 dedicated to raising funds to provide scholarships to children with high quality 1:1 reading tutoring to children with dyslexia or who are at risk-for reading failure. We raised $30k from individual and corporate donations and served 6 children for a minimum of 2 years each.
From the inception of MLC, it was our vision to create a center where children can have access to high-quality tutoring irrespective of family income. In our mind’s eye, this center would also be a place where adults can study our written language together and where parents find support.
Our vision is now becoming a reality with the partnership created with the Final Third Foundation’s after school soccer and literacy programs. At the end of 2023, Mindful Literacy Columbus will no longer be alive, but our vision will very much be living and breathing within F3!
Under the auspices of The Final Third Foundation, Dr. Bennett is now writing curriculum, training program managers, and conducting program evaluation research: Everything she dreamed of doing from the start of Mindful Literacy Columbus. Even endings can be sweet.
