About Us
Founded in 2012 by State Senator Vincent Hughes, the Read to Succeed (R2S) Philadelphia Program has provided low socioeconomic families with the opportunity to continue to enrich their children academically during the summer months free of charge. Senator Hughes responded to a critical need in the Philadelphia community and provided a safe, nurturing, and educational environment for their children. Read to Succeed Philadelphia empowers children by fostering literacy skills and instilling confidence in their ability to learn.
