How Does it Work?
Give and Grow is a community interest company dedicated to identifying and supporting students who are unable to fund tutoring sessions, targeting the students who are not eligible for any financial support from traditional systems. This platform offers a pay-it forward model where proceeds from paid tutoring sessions are used to directly fund free lessons for students in need. The eligibility for free sessions are determined on a case-by-case basis and the individual context of each student.
-
No One Falls Through
- Supports students let down by traditional aid.
- Eligibility determined on a case-by-case basis with full confidentiality
- Accessing support shouldn't depend on paperwork privilege or luck
-
Why We're Different
- Our model is self-funding - donations help us, but we don't entirely rely on them.
- Tutors gain real experience working with students and are provided with relevant, NTP-based training.
- We have a trust-based system, which means students can get the help they need without being held back by countless forms.
-
Community-Driven
- This initiative works through the kindness of paying students who choose to help other students grow with them.
- Our tutors are mission-driven, and mainly comprised of fellow university students seeking work experience.
- We strive to create a supportive culture of mutual aid and learning together.
