Our popular tutoring program pairs volunteers with young students to read one-on-one, once a week throughout the school year. Help students stay on track in school and build a love of reading. There are over 300 students waiting for you!
When a kid finds a new interest, there’s nothing that can hold them back. That’s why books matter. They can help you ignite new interests. Books bring us together and open our eyes to new possibilities.
On Feb. 23 through March 3, bring new or gently used K-3rd grade level books to your local Hy-Vee.

Access to education has a lifelong impact on kids. It can encourage early literacy and kindergarten readiness, enabling them to excel in school and even support their success in college or career.
Kids who enter school ready to learn are more likely to read proficiently by 3rd grade.
Students who read on grade level by third grade are 5x more likely to graduate ready for success in college or career.
Students who graduate high school are less likely to experience poverty, receive public assistance or become involved in the criminal justice system.
College graduates can earn up to $36,000 more per year, leading to financial stability and longer, healthier lives.
