The Talent Pledge Expanding your child's potential. Our Cause Tutoring kids love—at no cost The Talent Pledge connects K–8 students in Sudbury and nearby communities with free, high-quality, small-group or one-on-one tutoring that builds skills and confidence. Our trained high school and college volunteers use simple, evidence-based lessons and hands-on activities to make learning engaging and effective. We partner with local schools, camps, libraries, and community centers so support is nearby, welcoming, and easy to access. Families never pay—because every child deserves the chance to thrive. What we do Our organization hosts custom-length tutoring sessions (year round!) where children can sit down and learn with bright, high-school volunteers from their district. All of our tutoring is based off of local school curriculum, and is designed to be comprehensive and enjoyable for your child. If you're an older student eager to volunteer, or if you're a parent and want to sign your child up, this is the right program for you!
