We Believe:
That a
child that is read to is a child that will learn to read.
That a child that can
read is a child that will succeed.
But what if there are no books? What if there are not enough words?
What
if a child struggles to learn to read because he doesn't know what sound letters make?
Remediation is costly; remediation is not guaranteed.
But what if a child comes to school having been read to on a regular basis?
. . . just "Imagine the Possibilities" . . .
Our world is full of words. Words that hold the key to success in life.
If
a child can't read those words, then she has no future.
We
believe reading is the path to our children's successful future.
Help us help the next generation of readers get off to a great start! Volunteer, Donate,
Share an Idea.
