LEARN UNITED Tutoring & School Supplies
GENERAL INFORMATION
Free tutoring is available for children in grades K – 12 in all subjects. This program offers free tutoring services to all children in the community who need tutoring in a particular subject, or general assistance with schoolwork at flexible times. Volunteers for this program work with students who need one-on-one help on a particular topic for a short period of time – or for the entire school year. With education being one of United Way’s main areas of focus, Learn United Tutoring serves to fulfill the mission of supporting and promoting education.
Tutoring takes place primarily after school hours and may be virtual or in-person depending on the needs of the student. In-person tutoring locations include (but are not limited to) the YMCA of Greater Nashua, Nashua PAL, Girls Inc, the Nashua Public Library, the Salvation Army of Nashua, the 21st Century Extended Day Program, and United Way of Greater Nashua.

Rod Hansen / TAPP School Supplies Pantry
In partnership with the Teachers and Paws Project, United Way of Greater Nashua both hosts and stocks a school supplies pantry. This pantry is open to any educational staff in the Greater Nashua area who would like to pick up supplies for their low-income students. This program aims to guarantee that everyone in our school system, educators and students alike, has the supplies they need to succeed. Supplies include items like pens, notebooks, rulers, basic art supplies, and calculators. While United Way of Greater Nashua runs a collection drive for supplies each August, donations are welcomed year-round at the United Way office at 20 Broad Street, Nashua on weekdays between the hours of 9:30 am and 4:30 pm or by appointment. Educators can access the pantry at the United Way of Greater Nashua office also on weekdays between the same hours or by appointment if those times are not a good fit. Contact United Way at info@unitedwaynashua.org or (603) 882-4011 to schedule an appointment that fits your schedule or if you have questions!
