 Their mission is to support at-risk schools by providing every kindergartner, first grader, and second grader with books, activities, and videos designed to build character and foster a strong belief system through the power of literacy. Their vision is a world where literacy and shared values are restored in both classrooms and homes, helping to develop strong character traits and break the cycle of poverty.

“We have an educational crisis on our hands,” he says. Two-thirds of U.S. students are not reading at grade level. Strong character traits and core values are often not taught at home, making teaching even more challenging. More than 60% of U.S. teachers leave the profession within their first five years. Many at-risk children have no books at home. Does their program help reverse these alarming trends? Just ask their educators!
