Dear Friends,
As we prepare to welcome a new school year, it is important to pause and celebrate the positive impact we are making across our city. Every child we reach, every family we empower, and every new reader we inspire brings us one step closer to our vision of a community where every child reads at grade level and has the opportunity to succeed.
The strength of our Literacy Now family inspires me every single day. Donors, volunteers, community partners, school leaders, board members, and our dedicated staff each play a vital role in moving our mission forward. Though we come from diverse backgrounds and experiences, we are united by one shared belief that every child deserves the opportunity to read, learn, and thrive.
It is both an honor and a privilege to work alongside each of you as we continue this important journey together. Thank you for believing in our mission, investing in our children, and helping us empower kids to read.
For the Children
Jacklyn Minimah-Wilson, M. Ed.
Chief Executive Officer
