Library of Congress Literacy Award Winner. Recognized for our implementation of highly successful practices in literacy promotion!

Feel confident when working with Kids Read Now. The Library of Congress gave us this award based on our implementation of highly successful practices in literacy promotion including: Innovation, Sustainability, Replicability, Measurable Results and, Evidence-Based Practices.

Over 300,000 students across the US are spending more time reading for pleasure beyond the classroom – closing the reading gap with each additional minute of reading practice.

Nearly 3 million new books are now in the hands and homes of students. These students spend more time reading and taking ownership of their literacy because they receive books they get to choose, mailed to their home, in their name, that they get to keep! Getting kids to want to read is a complex recipe. We’ve honed our approach over the last decade to get the mix right.

We have a high-poverty district. But reading levels for every student who received books in the Kids Read Now summer program either stayed the same or went up!
