Impact Grant:

The Learning Lamp is a multi-faceted program dedicated to helping children, families and schools boost academic achievement through a wide range of supportive services. From tutoring and early childhood education to in-school support and enrichment activities, The Learning Lamp creates greater opportunities for success at every stage. During the summer, their programs keep young minds engaged and growing — because while school may be out, learning never takes a vacation.

This grant supported the development of The Best Day Ever!, a collection of turn-key, week-long summer camp lesson plans created by certified teachers and aligned with Pennsylvania and Common Core standards. Available free to providers across Pennsylvania during summer 2023, this resource saves staff time and expands access to high-quality, engaging activities for children.
