ONE ETS Cares Pages of Possibilities: Gift of Reading Fund

Room To Read

Room to Read is breaking the cycle of childhood illiteracy and poverty in a single generation. Room to Read's approach to solving the illiteracy crisis not only works for all children – it works at scale. An innovative Literacy Program results in some of the strongest positive learning outcomes in the sector and is the only global literacy organization that effectively combines these three core elements: effective literacy instruction; engaging, child-friendly libraries; and quality, local language children's books. A $50 (USD) donation will unlock the science and magic of reading for a child for a year.
