She developed a charity called "Paid for Grades." This is how she described it:

"If a student improves his or her literacy by at least one letter-grade, satisfies the attendance requirements and completes an interactive series of self-help workshops, the student will receive a check for $500. The money comes with no strings attached — and we’ll even pay for the student to receive after-hours tutoring from a teacher. We don’t reward effort; we reward performance."
