How you help	At Education Matters we love volunteers! Without the dedication, passion, and commitment of our volunteers we would be unable to provide all of the necessary services & opportunities that we currently do for our neighbors. We are always in need of volunteers to help us live our mission.

About us	Education Matters provides positive adult education programs to the Cincinnati community. We offer programs for speakers of other languages to learn and improve their English, GED preparation, and the college bridge program. We envision a city where all people have the opportunity to access the power of education because we believe that individuals can realize their potential if they have access to opportunity.
