Kids Read Now is a non-profit organization whose mission is to eliminate the K-3 summer reading slide. Since 2010, Kids Read Now has delivered over 160,000 new books to help nearly 27,000 K-3 students build a love of reading.
How It Works:
In the spring, teachers help students pick nine books from a list of over 120 best sellers. Each school hosts a Family Reading Night where students get their first three books and parents learn how to help their kids over the summer. All books are free to families and help build a child's personal library collection.
Kids Read Now stays in touch with families through calls, texts, emails, or Facebook messages, asking which book their child read that week. After a response, Kids Read Now mails another book to the student's home, addressed directly to the child. Each student who reads all nine books gets a certificate when they return to school in the fall.
