Our 30th Anniversary
What began as a grassroots effort in Kennewick, Washington, founded on the simple but powerful belief that reading together every day changes lives, has grown into a global movement. Three decades ago, our founders set out to help children succeed by encouraging families to read together 20 minutes a day. That commitment, rooted in community and volunteerism, laid the groundwork for everything we do.
Thank you for being part of our journey—past, present, and future. Together, let’s honor 30 years of progress and continue turning everyday moments into lifelong opportunities through literacy.
