A little help, please? This exclusive compilation benefits low-income students in their education levels.
UO, in conjunction with Filter magazine, brings this exclusive two-disc compilation that greatly benefits 826 National - a family of nonprofits working to help over 20,000 low-income students improve their reading and crucial writing skills, and bridging the gap between upper and lower class education levels. A large portion of sales is donated to this cause.
With branches all over the US, 826 National offers project-based learning opportunities that built on students’ classroom experience and strengthen their ability to express ideas creatively. UO and Filter Magazine have rounded up 24 tracks from some of our favorite artists, like The Ting Tings, Phoenix and Rubies.
