It serves 30 K\u20138 students\u2014many of whom have experienced trauma and challenging backgrounds\u2014through novel studies, targeted instruction, and enrichment activities that build literacy skills, support social\u2011emotional growth, and provide a safe, structured environment each summer.<\/p>\n<p>Children arrive at the Masonic Home for Children at Oxford with significant academic and emotional needs. Many have faced instability, neglect, or family disruption, which often leads to interrupted schooling and lower confidence in the classroom. Summer break can widen these gaps even further, making additional support essential for long\u2011term academic progress.<\/p>\n<p>Our project counteracts this by offering a focused and engaging learning experience that keeps students intellectually active during the months when they are most at risk for setbacks. Daily lessons reinforce essential reading skills, while group discussions and hands\u2011on projects help students connect with the material in meaningful, enjoyable ways. This integrated approach strengthens comprehension, encourages curiosity, and helps students build a positive identity as learners.<\/p>\n<p>Total Project Budget: $3,000<\/p>\n<p>Other Funding <br \/>\nSources For The Project (Committed &amp; Potential): Granville County United Way<\/p>\n<p>Project Duration: June 1, 2027 &#8211; July 31, 2027<br \/>\nGeographical Area Served: Oxford, North Carolina<br \/>\nAge Group To Be Served: K to 8 yrs<\/p>\n<p>Contact Information<\/p>\n<hr size='1' noshade='noshade' \/>\n<p>Contact Prefix (Mr,Mrs etc.): Ms.<br \/>\nContact First Name: Gabriella<br \/>\nContact Last Name: Wheat<br \/>\nContact Title: PQI\/Grant Coordinator<br \/>\nContact Phone: (217) 791-1200<br \/>\nContact Email: gwheat@mhc-oxford.org<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hermanowski Family Foundation Initial Request Form Organization Name: The Masonic Home for Children at Oxford, Inc.
