Founded in 2013, Smart Kids, Inc. was established to assist K-12 students that live and attend school in low-to-moderate income demographic areas within the Greater St. Louis Metropolitan Area with 1:1 tutoring. We are a public 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that provides academic 1:1 tutoring through both The Tutor Me Program and Explore St. Louis Summer Camp. For the past nine years, Smart Kids, Inc. has successfully helped over 1000 students through our programs. Even throughout the pandemic, we were still able to navigate through those tough times and provide our program services virtually. As for the Explore St. Louis Summer Camp, this past summer was our first time in two years, to have our camp open in person.
The populations that we serve are students that live and attend school in low-to-moderate demographic areas of St. Louis County and St. Louis City. 90%-100% of students that we serve from ages 5-18 receive free lunch (per their school demographics) and/or the families of these students are receiving some type of state assistance like food stamps, childcare assistance, health care coverage, and/or TANF. The students that we serve, their parents/guardians cannot financially afford the expenses of our program services on their own. In addition, these students are primarily from single-parent households and the parent is working multiple low-paying jobs to make ends meet while the other children are helping to raise their siblings. We want to offer those families that are struggling with everyday life needs especially when it comes to their children's educational needs.
