HORIZONS GIVING DAY
Horizons Giving Day (HGD) is a Network-wide virtual day of giving fueled by the power of collaboration. HGD brings together staff, Board members, volunteers, teachers, community members, donors, and the host school community to fundraise for Horizons programs and Horizons National in a marathon 24-hour giving event marked by peer-to-peer campaigns, affiliate prizes, matching gifts, and community activities to bring the Horizons spirit. Check out the official Horizons Giving Day website to see outcomes & results from Horizons Giving Day 2021, which raised over $2 million across the Horizons Network!

Helping Struggling Readers
Did you know that learning to read is a challenge for almost 40 percent of kids? The good news is that with early help, most reading problems can be prevented. The bad news is that nearly half of all parents who notice their child having trouble wait a year or more before getting help. Unfortunately, the older a child is, the more difficult it is to teach him or her to read. If a child can't read well by the end of third grade, odds are that he or she will never catch up. And the effects of falling behind and feeling like a failure can be devastating.
Early identification is crucial. If you suspect a problem, don't hesitate! Learn about reading difficulties, get your child assessed, find out what you can do to help your struggling reader, and don't give up!
