Make an Impact in Their Lives

Your gift today will ensure that together, we will continue to empower kids through reading.

Literacy Now’s mission is to transform communities by empowering children and families through literacy, leadership, and life skills. We have grown from one school with 91 students to serving more than 2,500 students and parents on 16 HISD and 4 Aldine ISD Title I campuses and in low-income community sites this school year.

Literacy Now provides reading readiness and reading intervention programs, parent engagement, and trained volunteer mentors for our Lunch Bunch program - elements contributing to children's long-term success. Our overarching goal is to empower students to read on grade level by the end of third grade, thereby increasing the likelihood that children will graduate from high school and be ready to pursue postsecondary goals.
