日本av无码

Daily Points of Light award winner Tiffany James has been a tutor at Callaway Elementary School since 2013. Not only is she the special assistant to the executive director and public relations manager of the Parking Authority and a mother of three young children, but she鈥檚 also a twice weekly tutor with 日本av无码 and goes out of her way to reach us with any new ideas and connections that can help our mission. Crystal, the third grade student Tiffany tutors has shown significant progress, increasing her rate of learning, and taking great strides toward reading on her grade level.

Tiffany first learned about 日本av无码 through an executive order by Baltimore鈥檚 Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, which grants City employees two hours each week to tutor with 日本av无码 through her Third Grade Reads initiative.聽Mayor Rawlings-Blake says,

I鈥檓 proud of each City employee who has become a 日本av无码 volunteer. I hope they will reach out to their co-workers and invite them to become a 日本av无码 volunteer. I also hope other large employers will follow our lead and support their employees to become 日本av无码 volunteers.

Tiffany did not hesitate to heed the Mayor鈥檚 call to action. Her enthusiasm for 日本av无码 led her to recruit both her supervisor and seven others from their department. Tiffany鈥檚 supervisor enjoyed tutoring so much that he has accepted a place on our Tutor Advisory Board, providing even more support to 日本av无码. Tiffany however, did not stop there.

She regularly meets with 日本av无码 staff聽to brainstorm聽new, creative ways to engage the community and serve聽our students. Tiffany took the lead on organizing a city wide book drive, collecting books across all of the City owned parking garages, resulting in 2,413 books that the Parking Authority boxed and delivered to our school sites. She also works to connect us to new organizations, schools and City departments. We鈥檝e received a huge response from these connections- inspiring new school partnerships including a partnership with the聽labor commissioner who has pledged support to 日本av无码 by organizing another book drive. We are honored to have her as a tutor and advocate.

Congratulations on your award Tiffany!
