McCabe
Community Education Programs include The Whittier Fifth
Dimension, Day on Campus, Power Hour Homework Help,
the Wizard's Hour Reading Program, and a summer educational computer program held at the Whittier
Boys & Girls Club. All are supported by a generous
grant from the B. C. McCabe Foundation to Whittier College's
Department of Education and Child Development. The programs are coordinated by
a specially selected team of Whittier
College undergraduates, The McCabe Scholars
Team, who receive special college financial assistance through the grant in return for their program service.
Collectively,
the McCabe Programs serve socially and
economically marginalized young people in
Whittier, California, USA and nearby
communities. A total of 1,137 children and youth participated in the McCabe Community Education Programs from July 1, 2006 through June 30, 2007.
