After running a successful pilot program in New York, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s campaign has launched a virtual Homework Helpers program that could serve as a model for communities around the country.
Late last month, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s campaign formally launched a virtual Homework Helpers Program following a seven week-long pilot program that involved around 100 students from Throggs Neck, New York. The latest iteration of the program involves educators and volunteers from around the country who will provide students living in New York’s 14th congressional district with one hour of free virtual homework help per week.
Ocasio-Cortez explains that the program was conceived in response to the fact that “due to systemic inequities in our education system, working class families are especially struggling with virtual learning and homework.” She explains, “It was important for our community to step in and do what we do best, which is to empower and organize local families and leverage our robust volunteer base.”
Et sur un sujet de meme nature… AOC a publie sur sa page Facebook ce video…
Nota Bene:
Et, en terminant, je tiens a preciser que je suis heureux d’offrir ces quelques pages de mon site web pour soutenir le travail de solidarite de AOC… ici et ma page Facebok. Ce n’est pas beaucoup, mais si par ces quelques pages, cela permet de recueillir des fonds pour aider les citoyens dans le besoin qui n’ont pas acces au meme service de securite sociale qu’ici… je suis pas aussi riche que Bezos ou Bill Gates… mais cela me fait plaisir. Et cela permet aux progressistes de garder leur independance financiere qui est important a leurs yeux et que j’admire. Et, mon site web est localise aux Etats-Unis… c’est la moindre des choses.

And, in closing, I want to specify that I am happy to offer these few pages of my website to support AOC’s solidarity work … here and my Facebok page. It is not much, but if by these few pages, it allows to collect funds to help citizens in need who do not have access to the same social programs than here … I’m not as rich as Bezos or Bill Gates … but that makes me happy. And this allows progressives to keep their financial independence which is important to their eyes and that I admire. And, my website is located in the United States … that’s the that’s the lesser of it.
