Read how Rising Stars has impacted the lives of our volunteers, the teachers we work with, the parents of our students and the students we serve:
“Over my 30+ years as a social worker, I discovered that while I was taking care of others I was also taking care of myself. When I retired, I wanted to continue that relationship. I am grateful to the Rising Stars tutoring program for providing me that opportunity. I often reflect on the greatest commandments that Christ gave us, ‘Love thy neighbor as thyself’ and ‘Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.'”
– Chuck Koenings, Tutor
“The hours spent tutoring – how and who they were spent with – was crucial to who I am as a person today.”
– Kristine RicaFrente, 2020 Marquette University Nursing School Graduate and Tutor
“These children bless me even when I do not realize it.”
– Sister Sylvia Hecht, SSND, Tutor
