What we do
Our programs help young people become confident readers, writers and leaders.
Book Giveaways
We deliver diverse, age-appropriate books to students in schools and communities that need them most, so every child can see themselves in a story.
Writing Workshops
Hands-on sessions where young people tell their own stories and grow as confident writers.
Youth Advisory Councils
Teens lead, plan and speak up, building real leadership skills with adult mentors beside them.
Educational Scholarships
Support for students taking their next step in education.
Our legacy programs
