Create System-Level Change

With this level of investment, you can end illiteracy for an entire community, transforming the prospects of thousands of children and their families forever. And we know our model works: children in Room to Read schools read twice as fast as children in non RtR schools. Education is the best investment.

Your donation can:

• Enable Room to Read’s expansion into one new school community in one of our program countries.
• Support the opening of a brand-new library space filled with hundreds of colorful, engaging, age- and culturally appropriate children’s books alongside a trained librarian.
• Provide ongoing teacher training and coaching for grade 1 and 2 educators so they can provide their students with the critical foundation to all future learning — the ability to read and write.
• Supply learning materials geared towards early reading and writing skills, including letter cards, word cards, exercises, workbooks and literacy games.
• Equip Room to Read to undertake ongoing monitoring and evaluation to ensure maximum effectiveness of our program for the community.
• Allow Room to Read to showcase this new community as a demonstration model to government partners, enabling us to leverage your investment and train government partners on our best-in-class quality education programs. This work equips governments to replicate the model for hundreds of additional communities in need across the country. Your investment can be a huge stepping stone towards system-level change!
