Vintage letter

I'm excited to share the heartfelt story behind our organization. Established in memory of my generous late brother, Read To Lead has grown into a movement, closing the literacy gap one book at a time.


Our mission at Read To Lead is a steadfast commitment to defying the odds by equipping every child with essential reading skills, fostering not just survival but thriving. We believe in each child's potential to leave a lasting impact on the world, and it's our responsibility to empower them with the knowledge and skills to do so. Through reading intervention services, research-backed strategies, and book drives, we aim to create a world where every child has the opportunity to Read To Lead, dream big, and achieve greatness.


This journey is a collective effort, and we're immensely grateful for your support. Your contribution is pivotal in making our mission a reality. Together, we can continue to touch the lives of young learners, nurturing their dreams and unlocking a world of opportunities through the magic of reading.


With gratitude,
