£1,000
Recipient Organization

£1080 pays for five months' rent of our volunteer hub. Our tenancy at the Oxford Hub is vital to the operation of Jacari, as it allows us to book rooms for our fundraising meetings and weekly volunteer training sessions, gives us a library where we store teaching resources for volunteers to use in their lessons, acts as a focal point for support where volunteers can drop in to ask the Coordinator questions and come for their DBS check, and enables us to easily collaborate with the other organisations sharing the space.

Recipient Org: Description Jacari's mission is to tackle educational inequality in Oxford by harnessing the energy and skills of university students. We match up student volunteers from Oxford University and Oxford Brookes with children living locally who are struggling at school due to speaking English as a second language. Teachers from 19 primary and secondary schools in the city refer children to our service. Volunteers visit their pupil's family home once a week to deliver a 1:1 session aimed at boosting the child's confidence and proficiency in English. We also run trips for children and volunteers to attend together.
