Achieving Breakthrough in Education for Children and Teenagers Living in Poverty
Children and teenagers deserve the opportunity to learn. Hop4Kids works daily to improve the children’s and teenagers’ learning conditions. Together, we are achieving breakthroughs in education for children and teenagers. Thanks to people like you.
Good quality education helps children and teenagers reach their full potential; however, for millions of children and youth, it is beyond reach, and many are not learning basic skills like reading and math if they attend school.
Across the United States, one in five children grows up in poverty. Of the counties with the highest poverty rates, 90% are rural. Because of circumstances beyond their control, millions of kids never reach their full potential.
Hop4Kids has been providing support programs to the most isolated and underserved children.
The Global Education and Poverty Problem: Early and Lasting Effects
The impact of poverty on a child’s academic achievement is significant and starts early. Young children growing up in poverty face challenges with cognitive and literary ability and [often] begin school academically and socioeconomically behind their peers from higher-income backgrounds. Therefore, Hop4Kids strives for providing support by providing school reading materials or partnering with national NPO to build classrooms in developing countries.
Research shows that high-quality early learning programs can improve child readiness, mainly, and the effects go far beyond just kindergarten and primary school: children who receive high-quality early education are more likely to stay in school longer, graduate from high school, and attend a four-year college.
