Bring Bilingual Books & Materials to Children 0-8

Raising A Reader is deeply grateful for your support in 2018 for our critical work of bringing our evidence-based early childhood literacy program to those children that need it most! Your gift is placing high-quality books into homes where there are none; bringing vital knowledge to parents through workshops; and providing training on how to engage families to the educators in our already under-resourced schools.

After a long work day, I opened my inbox to find that one of our schools sent an update from the teachers on their Raising A Reader experience in the classroom. I want to share this with you as it is the little moments like these that fuel us for the long-haul of ensuring that every child, from birth, is given the foundation for academic success.

"I find Raising A Reader makes a significant impact on our young readers.The texts are teeming with insightful information, the children and parents appreciate the opportunity of rotating reading material and the diversity with respect to culture that's found in the book selections. Children are excited about taking books home to read on a regular basis."

On behalf of our entire team, thank you for investing in this very important mission. With your generous gift, last year we changed 130,000 children’s lives one book at a time!
