School on Wheels, Inc. is a California-based nonprofit organization that provides one-on-one tutoring and mentoring for children experiencing homelessness or living in shelters, motels, group foster homes, and on the streets of Southern California. Each student receives not only weekly tutoring but also practical support such as backpacks, school supplies, uniforms, and assistance with school enrollment and records, addressing barriers to education for this underserved population. The organization operates in the nonprofit sector, relying on individual and community contributions to sustain its programs, and serves a diverse set of partners and volunteers who help deliver personalized educational support.

Founded in 1993 and based in Los Angeles, School on Wheels focuses on continuing education access for children who face housing instability. It positions itself as a hands-on support system that complements formal schooling by providing consistent, individualized instruction and essential materials. Recent developments include leadership additions to its Executive Board of Directors and recognition as a beneficiary in a global education fund, underscoring its ongoing collaborations and external acknowledgment within the community.
