The answer to that question is Yes!

The reading partnership along with 360° Stories gives kids (9-12 years old) the 360° experience of bringing a book to life – they write, illustrate, edit and publish a story in an anthology.

Led by professional writers and illustrators, the program gives students the tools and the one-to-one support they need to use their language to talk about their world and to tell their stories in their own way. The program culminates in an exciting official book launch, open to the public, hosted at a local bookstore, library or online.

This is a life changing experience that enables a child to go on a journey they never would otherwise. But taking a child on that journey takes passion, time and support from donors like you. The Reading Partnership needs your support this holiday season. Please donate now and create a young author.

Reading is even more crucial for children living in low-income communities with increased barriers. This is why we need your financial support to continue delivering highly engaging and responsive literacy programs. We cannot exist without your support. Every contribution makes a difference when we invest in the future.

Help a child access to our virtual book club with your donation and will provide a parent or guardian with a special learning guide and initial support for their child.
