READING OUR WAY TO A BRIGHTER FUTUREDid you know that having access to books in the home is a stronger predictor of later academic achievement than socio-economic status? Yet, studies have shown 61% of low-income families don't have any age appropriate books in their homes.There are many, many children who have the potential for academic and professional achievement, but are stifled by a lack of the basic resources conducive to early learning.Our goal is to change that.Reading is one of the most valuable skills a person can have, but studies show that children who grow up in homes without books never make reading part of their life.Reading Recycled is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization with a simple goal: to put books into the homes of all children. This mission is the brainchild of our founder, Anne, a certified teacher with a Master's degree in Education. Anne was shocked after watching a documentary about young children with no books to read. As a teacher, she knew how devastating this was, and resolved to make a difference.WHAT WE DOAt Reading Recycled, we collect new and gently used book donations and sort, clean, package and distribute them to children who desperately need them.These books are delivered to families, churches, shelters, schools, and any other place a child might want to read (like the laundromat, etc), where there are no books.HOW YOU CAN HELP US PUT BOOKS IN EVERY CHILD'S HOMEGo to http://ReadingRecycled.org for more info.• Put your new or gently used books in our bins• Monetary donations via mail• Book donations via USPS media mail• Donate via PayPal• Buy One, Give One – Shop for your own new books on our sister site, and we'll donate a brand new book• Share us with your friends on your social network accountsIf there are other ways you would like to help, please don't hesitate to contact us.
