Winne’s Wagon Mobile Classroom

Winnie’s Wagon will lift the futures of young minds facing the challenges of homelessness.

about

We partnered with the Homeless Children’s Education Fund (HCEF) to create Winne’s Wagon, the first mobile classroom in Southwestern Pennsylvania, and the nation, dedicated to serving youth experiencing homelessness. Winnie’s Wagon is a community asset that travels to various events and festivals throughout Allegheny County, PA, allowing all children to experience get valuable tutoring and learning opportunities t schools, libraries, shelters and other out-of-school time agencies. The HCEF team anticipates Winnie’s Wagon will provide more than 1,000 tutoring sessions and/or enrichment opportunities annually, or approximately 20-25 students per week.

Leveraging our universal design and hands-on learning expertise, we created an oasis for learning equipped with educational games, teaching resources, books and school supplies. It includes storage, bookshelves, whiteboard space, a fold-out table and seating for tutoring. And, the unit has a hotspot for internet connectivity to support digital educational tools and technology.
