This year, Phelps Helps is celebrating 10 years of working with Stanstead's community through educational and career support.
This anniversary is a significant milestone and an opportunity to look back over a decade of helping children, youth, young adults and their families to realize their full potential and to celebrate the commitment, effort and memories that make Phelps Helps so special. Phelps Helps first opened its doors in September 2012 with its flagship high school tutoring program. Over the years, another five programs were developed to include elementary tutoring, Spark STEM learning, Compass, mentoring and summer camp. Discover what this really means in our video below.
