Nearly 2 out of 3 children in low-income communities don’t have a single children’s book to call their own.
When you purchase books for donation from our online shopping cart, you’re planting the seed to help a child develop a lifelong love for reading. You are more than an early literacy advocate, you are a life changer.
Support early childhood literacy in virtual meetings! If you’re using Zoom for virtual meetings, show your support for early childhood literacy with our children’s book-themed Zoom backgrounds. Download backgrounds and read how to use them here: Grow A Reader Zoom Book Backgrounds
Grow A Reader wouldn’t be possible without the generosity of our favorite local businesses that have teamed up for this month-long drive to help Arizona kids!
We’re also grateful for our individual literacy champions!
