Testimonials
Below are a few quotes from several people who have personally been involved with Whiz Kids whose lives have been changed through this amazing program.
Tyler Russell - Former Whiz Kids Student
“If I never got involved in Whiz Kids, I might not have even graduated.”
Bo Dorough - Mayor of Albany, GA
“Whiz Kids enhances the lives of the volunteers as well as provides an opportunity for success to innumerable at-risk youth.”
Hailey Russell - Former Whiz Kids Student
“Whiz Kids helped my life because it made me better at reading. It made me confident and it was awesome.”
Frankie Freeman - Whiz Kids Tutor
“By the end of the program, she was a different student than the child that walked through the door the first day.”
Kevin Sproul - Sheriff of Albany GA
“I believe with Whiz Kids in a community, it could help children in that community that may need that one-on-one tutoring. It could really help prevent them from crossing that path into crime or getting involved into making poor choices.”
Albert Jones - Whiz Kids Tutor
“I always believe that men learn to be men by observing other men, and other men giving them the guidance.”
Misty Russell (Tyler's Mom)
"He was just a great tutor. He really understood Tyler and what Tyler needed."
Dr. William Coker - Exec. Director, Whiz Kids Georgia
"The vision of Whiz Kids is to improve the reading skills of Georgia children who are at risk, through caring relationships with tutors because it makes a difference."
Lee Don - Founder, Whiz Kids Georgia
“Our children come from school, they are hungry, and we provide them snacks. If you provide the snacks, you will make some kids very, very happy."
Ronnie Keel - Former Whiz Kids Bus Driver
“He got me aside and said, "can I be your friend after this school is over?" I said sure you can. You don't have any friends? He said, "no sir, not anybody that will talk to me.” And I realized how important it was to talk to these children one-on-one."
