Pauly Hart's Company Details
Lead to Read KC is a Kansas City nonprofit dedicated to supporting the social, emotional and reading skills that are foundational for student success by advancing our literacy platform and mobilizing community volunteers. Why? Fewer than half of third graders in Kansas City are reading on grade level. In many high-need schools, it's fewer than 25 percent. Reading is essential — not just for success in school, but for life. When children have trouble learning to read, it can kick off a devastating downward spiral. Poor reading skills make it hard to keep up in other subject areas. Struggling readers are more likely to report feeling lonely, angry, anxious and depressed. And, they're more likely to have behavior problems, end up in the juvenile justice system and drop out of school. Partner with us to help Kansas City children build a brighter future.
