Summer Advantage USA


Summer Advantage USA is a national non-profit organization providing elementary and middle school students living in low–performing school districts with research-based summer learning programs focused on academic gains.

Summer Advantage USA was launched in January 2009 by Earl Martin Phalen. The first location is in Indiana.

Earl Martin Phalen, Founder and CEO, began in June 1993 cofounding a community service outreach organization known as BELL (Building Educated Leaders for Life). BELL has been recognized as one of the “top 25 organizations changing the world” by Fast Company magazine and the Monitor Group. Currently operating at 64 sites in Baltimore, Boston, and New York, some 15,000 students have passed through the program. In September 2008, Phalen chose to focus on summer learning by founding Summer Advantage USA.
