GIVE THE GIFT OF READING
EMPOWER KIDS TO OUTSMART POVERTY
WHAT IS LITERACY WORTH TO YOU?
“I can’t wait to grow up and be on food stamps,”
—said no one ever!
82% of children in low-income families can’t read at grade level by the 4th grade. Of them, two-thirds will end up in jail or on welfare. (—NAEP)
Falling in love with reading impacts lives and provides a world of possibilities.
