The Free Reading Program
We provide an effective literacy program for children that has a social media twist that helps the sponsor too. We partner with organizations looking to improve literacy in their community or around the world.
We provide them with our robust Kindergarten to grade 6 level Reading program. The program includes over 3600 online interactive Reading, Spelling and Grammar lessons. The program is distributed freely in their community. The program is monitored, managed and serviced by our organization.
We assist with community promotion by providing social media, marketing, consulting and technical development assistance. We ensure this literacy initiative is successful using a number of tools and approaches that have been tried, tested and proven successful.
