Strong Readers. Strong Futures.

Why Focus on Literacy?

We Believe Literacy Is
A Human Right. Without Literacy,
There is no Liberation.

Reading is the foundation for educational success and opportunities in life, yet many children are not given the time and skills to build this foundation. Through our evidence-based, transformative approach, we work to close the literacy gap while diversifying the educator pipeline to ensure every student has the support they deserve. Since our inception in 2009, we’ve remained committed to investing in literacy to help improve lives, particularly for our most marginalized students.

Building Future Leaders

Our Fellows play a critical role in shaping future learners by helping young students improve their reading skills. Through hands-on classroom experience and personalized mentorship, Fellows also receive extensive professional development to prepare them for a future in education or beyond.
