Have you ever wanted to do something AMAZING to change the world but didn't know where to start? Here is an opportunity to join the American Youth Literacy Foundation, an all- volunteer 501 c 3 charitable non-profit organization, founded in 2008 and dedicated to providing a gateway to a future in which all children, in every classroom in America, learn how to read by the end of 3rd grade. Our mission is to save millions of children from a lifetime of illiteracy and bring about true education parity in just a few years’ time by deploying the FUNetix(r) 12 Hour Reading App(tm) nationwide. With the FUNetix app, which is 100% free to download and use, any child can learn how to read in about 12 hours of total play time; and in America’s public schools today, there are millions of children who can’t read or are struggling to read, which has led to more than 20 million illiterate high school dropouts over the past 20 years. But it doesn’t have to be this way! We started in 2008 by taking a groundbreaking, science-based curriculum and proving that it can scale to reach and help thousands of children. Then, in 2020, during the pandemic, we created an app, based on our now patented reading curriculum, that takes kids from the ABC's to a 2nd grade reading level through an amazing journey that's fully narrated and tastefully animated, and gamified, just enough, to create an immersive, interactive environment that captures kids' attention and imagination and launches them to literacy in a fun and easy way. Our challenge now is to bring the app to millions of children who are not learning how to read in school, either because they are in schools that are failing or because they are in difficult situations at home for a variety of reasons. Right now, we are looking to expand our incredible Team FUNetix and we are looking for a skilled Video Production Editor . As a Video Production Editor, you will be responsible for assembling recorded film and video footage, applying artistic editing techniques and creating finished, broadcast-worthy projects that accurately reflect the vision of the Executive Director and the Video Production Team Leader. You'll manage material such as camera footage, dialogue, sound effects, graphics and special effects to produce final video products. This is a key role in the post-production process, and your skills can determine the quality and delivery of FUNetix video clips. We hope this opportunity finds you at the right place and the right time in your career to make a difference and an impact, in an amazing way, for millions of children who are waiting for someone, or something, to lead them out of a life of impoverishment and into a future of unlimited possibility and potential. So, if this sounds like something that you have the time for and interest in, and if you have the confidence and ability to work in a virtual environment using select networking and communications tools and platforms, then please reply to this listing and tell us about yourself. We look forward to hearing from you and speaking with you about the future of literacy in America. You can read more about our story, and about our team, on our website at www.FUNetix.org. Mr. R. Kali Woodward Founding, Executive Director

Have you ever wanted to do something AMAZING to change the world but didn't know where to start ? Here is an opportunity to join the American Youth Literacy Foundation, an all- volunteer 501 c 3 charitable non-profit organization, founded in 2008 and dedicated to creating a future in which all children, in every classroom in America, learn how to read by the end of 3rd grade. Our mission is to save millions of children from a lifetime of illiteracy and bring about true educational equity in just a few years’ time by making parents, kids, teachers and tutors aware of the 100% FREE, FUNetix 12 Hour Reading App. With the FUNetix app, ANY child can learn how to read in just 12 hours, just by playing the app; and in America’s public schools today, there are millions of children who can’t read or are struggling to read, which has led to more than 20 million illiterate high school dropouts over the past 20 years. But it doesn’t have to be this way! We started in 2008 by taking a groundbreaking, science-based curriculum and proving that it can scale to reach and help thousands of children. Then, in 2020, during the pandemic, we created an app, based on our patented reading curriculum, that takes kids from the ABC's to a 2nd grade reading level through an amazing treasure hunt that's fully narrated, tastefully animated, and gamified just enough, to create an immersive, interactive environment that captures kids' attention and imagination and launches them to literacy in a fast, easy, fun way. Our mission is to bring the app to millions of children in the next year who are either just learning how to read or who are struggling with reading. We are looking to expand our incredible Team FUNetix with new Community Outreach Team Members , namely high school students willing to engage with their local communities in ways such as printing and placing flyers around town telling parents, teachers, kids, and anyone who's interested, that FUNetix can teach ANY child how to read in 12 hours, for FREE! Our Community Outreach Team members are individuals with diverse backgrounds and with diverse interests and talents; but most of all, they are individuals who have a willingness and enthusiasm for reaching out into their communities to help children who can't read. The ideal Community Outreach high school volunteers are enthusiastic, responsible, caring and motivated, and have perhaps seen the challenges of illiteracy, low literacy and low education that are plaguing many of our communities, and are willing to both talk to and listen to people as they post flyers and build public awareness of the FUNetix app among families with children in need. We are also always looking for new ideas and new ways to spread awareness in the community, which may include participating in street fairs or other events where parents and kids gather to hand out information and simple swag like balloons or silicone wristbands. In addition, some high schoolers may want to become reading tutors or reading mentors and actually work with students as they go through the app and learn how to read. Ask us for more information about that. We have had hundreds of amazing high school volunteers over the years. We give credit for hours served and this is a great opportunity to bump up your resume with meaningful volunteer experience. The best candidates need to be self-motivated, enthusiastic, and community-driven to take on this exciting and important role. This position requires someone equipped with a positive attitude and readiness to be a team player. Even though it is locally based, all communication is virtual via slack, zoom and utilizing google shared folders. We are eliminating illiteracy in America in the next few years with the most AMAZING app in the world: FUNetix! If you want to be a part of helping millions of children access education and their true potential through literacy, and if this sounds like something that you have the time for and interest in, and would like to be a part of our team, then please reply to this listing and tell us about yourself. We look forward to hearing from you and speaking with you about a renewed sense of hope for the future of literacy and education in America.
