About Us For eight years, Omosaze, Inc. and its Reading Saturday program have helped children experience the wonder of learning, the pride of achievement, and the excitement of unlimited possibilities. The greatest reward for Reading Saturday parents, staff and volunteers is to see a child who was struggling with school transform into one who enjoys reading and demonstrates newfound confidence and success in academic and social endeavors. In 2009-2010, two new programs, an after-school Reading Club and a Summer Literacy Camp will be introduced, allowing Omosaze to realize these benefits for an even greater number of children. Our History Omosaze, Inc. was established in 1999 to help with severe reading deficiencies volunteers encountered while working in a Marietta, Georgia public housing community. In 2001, Omosaze implemented its weekend curriculum, Reading Saturday. Reading Saturday was originally targeted to students in grades 1-2. It has been expanded over the years to include students in grades 3-5 Enrollment and Staffing Since inception, Omosaze has grown from serving 10 students (2001-2002) in a single Marietta County school to serving more than 200 students (2008-2009) from seven schools in Cobb County. Student-teacher ratios are maintained at 8:1 or better. The average number of volunteers spending one-on-one reading time with first grade students each year is 50.
