A Reading Foundation can be started by one to five people. Local politicians, school board members, administrators, business leaders, teachers, parents, non-profits and the media have all been instrumental in starting Reading Foundations. In short, if there is a need for children to be read to for at least 20 minutes a day, then a Reading Foundation will benefit your community. Affiliating with the National Children's Reading Foundtion is easy and has many benefits.

Those interested in affiliating, please submit the Request Form below. In return you will receive an electronic copy of The Reading Foundation Organizational Handbook which describes the steps to establishing a Reading Foundation.

Affiliates, which are called local chapters, are entitled to the use of name and concepts, consulting services, shared media resources (including web site) as well as many other services detailed in the Reading Foundation Resources Guide .

Questions about starting a Reading Foundation Chapter are welcome at nkerr@readingfoundation.org
