Help the Impact Maker Education Team and its community partners get more books into the hands of Arizonan's children through Little Free Libraries!

Two out of every three children living in poverty don't have books of their own at home. That puts them, on average, three years behind children who do. Today, only 46% of Arizona third graders read at grade level – and that skill is a leading indicator of future high school graduation. How can we address this literacy gap? Increasing access to books at home. Little Free Libraries are a way to do just that, creating a local, shared library available anytime in local neighborhoods. It's one way the Valley Leadership Education Impact Team is working to ensure 72% of third-grade students are reading at or above grade level by 2030.
