TO BENEFIT:

Page Ahead empowers disadvantaged children by advocating literacy and fostering a love of reading.

Mission: Page Ahead promotes reading activities and provides new books for at-risk children to enrich their lives and strengthen our communities. The program builds upon one simple and astounding fact that being read to, as a youngster, is the number one predictor of academic success.

Page Ahead began in 1990 in Seattle. Its aim was to break the interlinked chains of poverty and illiteracy by helping at-risk children get the attention and the materials they need early in life to become strong readers and successful students. To date they have distributed over 1.5 million books to over 500,000 children throughout Washington State by working through elementary schools, preschools, childcare centers, early childhood programs, and social service agencies.
