A world of educated children starts with you

Education is a human right, yet millions of children around the world do not have room in their lives for learning.

Your donation will help children in communities experiencing deep educational, gender and economic inequities find the room they need to build strong skills, lead more fulfilling lives, and create a better tomorrow.

Founded in 2000 on the belief that World Change Starts with Educated Children®, Room to Read helps children in historically low-income communities develop literacy skills and a habit of reading, and supports girls as they build life skills to succeed in school and negotiate key life decisions. We collaborate with local communities, partner organizations and governments to test and implement innovative models that can be integrated into education systems to deliver positive outcomes for children at scale. To date, Room to Read has benefited more than 39 million children across 23 countries and over 182,000 communities and aims to reach 40 million children by 2025. Join us.
