College Guild

The mission of College Guild is to provide free correspondence courses that connect incarcerated people with a community beyond prison walls, fostering mutual respect through a shared passion for learning.

Our nonprofit has been in operation since 2001, and have enrolled more than 10,000 students nationwide. More Volunteer Readers are always needed and welcome. Through mutually-anonymous correspondence with careful guidance and quality control, volunteer readers provide feedback for students' work. All student work and reader feedback is processed through our office. There are no grades - our feedback is designed to encourage learning and to reinforce a positive educational experience. No experience is necessary! Just a willingness to respond thoughtfully, respectfully and promptly to student coursework. As long as you have an internet connection, you can join our 200+ volunteer readers in providing this valuable educational experience.
