Opportunities

Tutor

We tutor 5th-10th grade, math and language arts. All of our students are currently enrolled in the Dayton Public School system. For many of our students, English is a second language. Most need basic or foundational academic assistance. Tutors will be expected to pass a background check and take a 2-hour training course on keeping minors safe. Submit the form above and we will contact you to discuss the program in more detail.

About us

Ron and Krista Mainess are the founders behind Helping Our Families.  From early on in their journey together they have opened their homes and hearts to family and friends needing a safe and stable environment to succeed.  It seemed natural that the next step would be to create an organization where they could provide the same type of support and guidance to  other single mothers. 

Helping Our Families’ primary purpose is to  enable single mothers and their children to achieve stability by providing wrap around services, after school tutoring,  job-placement counseling through our relationships with local businesses. We offer  a positive environment with established, effective programs that develop parent and child skills and support mothers spiritually, psychologically and emotionally as they work to meet the needs of their families.Â
