A platform created by citizens for citizens
There are about 227 thousand pupils in Vienna’s schools, of whom more than 110 thousand children and juveniles do not have German as mother language. Almost half of these live in socially disadvantaged families who need the help of WIENER LERNTAFEL. In their charity work, they have started to create an infrastructure which enables them to provide children from socially disadvantaged families not only with free tuition, but also with space, time and a constructive learning environment. WIENER LERNTAFEL already has programs and support models that well exceed the time and human resources of equivalent state institutions. They offer primarily individual tuition, integration advice and support for schoolchildren who feel uncomfortable in their current school situation. The centers in Simmering and Kagran are open 6 days a week, supporting self-driven learning initiative in pupils with problems at school. The WIENER LERNTAFEL functions simply, sustainably and efficiently. With an annual budget of 300 thousand Euros they are able to support more than 520 children, every month. Their approx. 220 voluntary tutors make a valuable contribution, helping the children of families with a low education profile to reach the education standards required for positive future development. >>Visit the WIENER LERNTAFEL Website
