Older Volunteers Help Children Learn to Read

Illiteracy is a problem in many of the world's poorest countries. Even in wealthier nations like the United States, many children struggle with reading and writing. But in 19 cities across the country, the volunteers of Experience Corps are helping youngsters learn to read. The volunteers, all over 50, work with students in low-income areas. VOA's Deborah Block visited a school in Washington where Experience Corps is making a difference.
