Together we’re raising a nation of readers and preparing every child for kindergarten.
Vision To ensure every child learns to read early and well, thereby reaching his or her full potential in school and in life.
Mission Encourage and educate families about their important role in raising a reader and preparing their child for kindergarten. Support schools in ensuring students read on grade level by the end of third grade. Facilitate community involvement in helping young readers be successful.
A Message From Our Board Chair and CEO Since our humble beginning in two counties of Washington state in 1996, The Children’s Reading Foundation® has been dedicated to its mission to ensure all children learn to read early and well, specifically on grade level by the end of third grade. Today, we are a debt-free, national nonprofit helping hundreds of thousands of families and children in 25 states with our literacy and learning programs and educational messages. And nearly two decades later, our focus remains on engaging parents and caregivers during a child’s critical early learning years of birth through third grade. Fiscal Year 2015. The year was one of expansion and transition for The Children’s Reading Foundation. We continued our efforts to support families, schools and communities in raising readers and preparing every child for kindergarten. But our team doesn’t do this vital work alone. We’re proud to serve alongside our community-based chapters, READY! for Kindergarten® programs, and local grant partners all across America to achieve this mission. The Children’s Reading Foundation network added a new chapter in Okanogan County, Washington, and 42 new READY! for Kindergarten school readiness programs in 13 states. We strengthened our efforts in high-need communities and furthered early literacy initiatives nationwide with a $3.8 million, two-year U.S. Department of Education Innovative Approaches to Literacy (IAL) grant for 2014 – 2016. We are honored to be the only national nonprofit selected for a second consecutive IAL grant following our previous award of $2.9 million for 2012 – 2014. Through the IAL grant, we expanded our school readiness program, READY! for Kindergarten, as well as our summer reading program, READ Up: Stop the Summer SlideSM. These proven programs facilitate a child’s development in ways that cultivate crucial early literacy and learning skills while strengthening relationships and self-confidence. We also continued work on a supplement to our READY! for Kindergarten program, a mobile app to benefit children who lack access to our community-based programs. This new product will offer early learning games and resources for adults to guide children in learning key preliteracy and school readiness skills. At our annual conference, we were proud to award The Children’s Reading Foundation of Licking County, Ohio, as our 2015 Flagship Chapter Award recipient. Since it began in 2009, this chapter has had a major impact on the community and students it serves, and we’re excited to see them continue to make a difference. Fiscal year 2015 concluded the distinguished 20-year career of Nancy Kerr as President of The Children’s Reading Foundation. Her contributions are countless, and we’re fortunate to have her continue to serve on our national board of directors. 20th Anniversary Celebration. Looking ahead to 2016, we will be privileged to mark two decades of service to families and children from coast-to-coast. Throughout 2016, we’ll celebrate our 20th anniversary with our partners across the country. Our aim is to increase awareness about the importance of daily reading, talking and purposeful play beginning at birth, which nurtures a child’s development in ways that foster essential early literacy, math and social-emotional skills. We encourage you to visit our website, take the reading pledge and commit to reading with a child 20 minutes every day. And please join our anniversary celebration beginning January 2016 at ReadingFoundation.org. Sincerely,
Paul Rosier Board Chair

Our Collective Impact & Success Stories The Children’s Reading Foundation programs, tools and trainings have strengthened young readers since 1996. Together with our local reading foundation chapters and READY! for Kindergarten program partners, we’re serving children in 25 states and supporting families from all walks of life in preparing their children to succeed in school.
“Early Learning in Sumner includes children, families, schools and the community from birth to third grade. As a school district, we go beyond the requirement of K-12 education to begin supporting families and children well before they walk into our schools as kindergartners. READY! for Kindergarten is an excellent program to build the potential and the foundation for our youngest learners. And READY! does it by supporting their first and most important teachers, their parents!”
— Laurie Sjolund Sumner School District (Washington)
“At one of our READ Up events, a little girl kept looking at all of the books on the table. I asked her if she liked to read and her reply was, ‘I love to read! But I only have two books that you gave me before.’ That broke my heart! I knew that lots of kids in our area didn’t have books in their homes. Thanks to The Children’s Reading Foundation we had an opportunity to make this child’s life brighter by sending her home with a bag full of books.”

— Kathleen Mulroy Panhandle Alliance for Education Sandpoint School District (Idaho)
“We joined forces with the Chicago Public Library and our Future Educators of America group at Richards High School for a book giveaway event, to provide local students at Childs Elementary School with two new books to enjoy over the summer. Seeing the students’ faces light up as we shared the love of reading and learning was unforgettable. This is what our mission and vision are all about.”

“At the start of our READY! program in 2008, only 49% of Mankato students tested ready for kindergarten, as measured by DIBELS. Now that figure is 69%.”

Reading 20 minutes every day with a child beginning at birth is the most important activity families can do to aid in a child’s overall learning and development.
The Children’s Reading Foundation The Children’s Reading Foundation was founded in 1996 in Kennewick, Washington. The foundation’s early work was focused on parents and caregivers reading daily with a child with the message:
Read Together 20 Minutes Every Day™ Nearly two decades later, The Children’s Reading Foundation is a national nonprofit with chapters and programs across the country, including the READY! for Kindergarten® school readiness program. The foundation continues to strengthen partnerships and build broad awareness of its vision, mission and messages. The foundation remains focused on ensuring parents and caregivers understand their critical role in helping nurture children’s development from birth through third grade by spending time each day in literacy and learning activities. To accomplish its work, The Children’s Reading Foundation uses a multifaceted approach to encourage and support families, schools and communities through education, engagement, and school readiness and reading programs. This all-encompassing approach helps provide children with a strong foundation in reading and ensures they enter school eager and ready to continue learning.

The Children’s Reading Foundation
Our Chapters The Children’s Reading Foundation local chapters are affiliates of the national office and can currently be found in 11 states. Chapters empower parents, schools, caregivers and leaders to vastly improve the future for all children in the communities served. At its core, a chapter of The Children’s Reading Foundation is a group of local champions. These caring community leaders help sustain the foundation’s enormously powerful message, “Read with a child. It’s the most important 20 minutes of your day.” Chapters understand that one of the biggest predictors of a child’s success in school and life is reading proficiently by the end of third grade. And through the simple steps of communicating clearly, involving broad local partners and staying mission focused they mobilize entire communities to ensure every child receives the lifelong advantages of literacy.
Welcome Okanogan County During fiscal year 2015, a new chapter formally launched in Washington state. The Children’s Reading Foundation of Okanogan County serves a large migrant population and supports the community’s English as a Second Language bilingual needs. The chapter is already broadening its impact by reaching out to the community and families it serves in-person, and by adapting its READY! for Kindergarten parent workshop times to accommodate participants’ work schedules.
2015 Flagship Chapter Award Each year, The Children’s Reading Foundation selects one of its local chapters for its Flagship Chapter Award. To be considered, a chapter must demonstrate mission effectiveness, sustainability, board engagement and strong community support. The Children’s Reading Foundation of Licking County Ohio was selected as the recipient of the 2015 Flagship Chapter Award. Formed in 2009, the chapter focuses on engaging families to read daily with their children beginning at birth and offers the READY! for Kindergarten program to reach its vision of 100 percent literacy for children in the county. The Children's Reading Foundation of Licking County is making a positive difference for students in its service area.
2015 Flagship Chapter Award “I am so excited about our chapter receiving the Flagship Award. It is such a wonderful recognition of the people whose vision and dedication to childhood literacy in Licking County has created and sustained our local chapter for the past six years.” — David Hile Licking Valley Local Schools and The Children’s Reading Foundation of Licking County (Ohio)

Our Programs READY! for Kindergarten® The READY! for Kindergarten program engages parents and caregivers in their child’s learning from birth to age 5. READY! builds strong parent involvement and teaches families new skills and helpful tips to nurture a child’s development in ways that foster essential early literacy, math and social-emotional skills.
READY! parent workshops, learning targets, and take-home activities and tools, equip parents and caregivers to help babies and young children develop strong brain connections for success in school. The program is designed to tailor to local needs and opportunities including Head Start, preschools, home visitor and other community models. Lessons are available in English and Spanish, and can be adapted for other non-English speaking populations. At the end of fiscal year 2015, there were 170 READY! programs nationwide in 25 states. The READY! for Kindergarten app is currently under development. The games are based on many of the READY! for Kindergarten Age Level Targets© and are designed to work on mobile devices. The READY! app will provide another tool for families to use as they spend time each day with their child to learn and practice skills to prepare them for future learning.

READ Up: Stop the Summer Slide
SM
The summer slide begins the first week students are out of school. School-age children can lose up to three months of reading skills in just one summer. The READ Up literacy program promotes reading as part of daily summer routines, so children don’t miss out on critical brain development during the summer break.
READ Up events are for children from birth to age 8 and their parents or caregivers. At every event, adults leave with new skills and motivation to encourage daily reading, while children leave with a new book and fun take-home materials. In fiscal year 2015, more than 400 READ Up events were offered around the country by chapters of The Children’s Reading Foundation, school districts and other early learning organizations.
Team READ
TM
Reading on grade level by the end of third grade is a critical milestone because until that point children are learning to read, after third grade they are reading to learn.
Team READ is a community of volunteers that mentor struggling young readers in the first, second and third grades. The volunteers read with students one-on-one, twice each week during the school day.
IMPROVING READING SKILLS ... ONE STUDENT AT A TIME/
The literacy skills of students who participate in Team READ improve throughout the school year by reading with and to their mentor and practicing vocabulary words. The ultimate goal is to ensure every child is reading on grade level. Currently, Team READ is offered by The Children’s Reading Foundation of the Mid-Columbia chapter.

U.S. Department of Education Innovative Approaches to Literacy Grant In 2014, The Children’s Reading Foundation was awarded a two-year, $3.8 million Innovative Approaches to Literacy (IAL) federal grant by the U.S. Department of Education to serve families in poverty nationwide. The foundation is the only national nonprofit awarded an IAL grant for a second consecutive cycle. The Children’s Reading Foundation was previously awarded a $2.9 million IAL grant for 2012 – 2014. As part of its IAL work, in fiscal year 2015, The Children’s Reading Foundation served more than 4,000 families with the READY! for Kindergarten program and distributed more than 150,000 books to children from birth to age 8 in more than 50 disadvantaged school districts throughout the country.

Regina D. Weiss Literacy Legacy The Children’s Reading Foundation was selected by the Weiss family in 2011 to help carry on the literacy legacy of their beloved wife and mother, the late Regina D. Weiss, through a literacy legacy fund in her honor. Regina Weiss dedicated her life to children’s literacy as a reading teacher for 33 years. She accepted her students as they were and believed in them and their potential. Regina lived her life with unwavering faith that there is goodness in all of us. She understood that literacy unleashes the intellectual power of understanding, original thought, imagination and the very essence of freedom itself.

Literacy Legacy
Through fiscal 2015, more than $26,000 has been generously donated to the Regina D. Weiss Literacy Legacy fund. Donations to this fund help support the foundation’s children’s literacy efforts nationwide.
2015 Annual Report

Financials The Children’s Reading Foundation reported record total income of $3 million in fiscal year 2015. The increases in total income are attributable to both the Innovative Approaches to Literacy (IAL) grant awarded to the foundation by the U.S. Department of Education, and stronger non-grant sales. These increases in income have been offset by additional spending for product development and outreach, resulting in a net loss of $2,805. Furthermore, no profit is recognized on the IAL federal grant. Despite incurring a net loss for the fiscal year, The Children’s Reading Foundation maintains sufficient working capital to meet its business objectives. The foundation had $770,228 in cash and cash equivalents, with total liabilities of $28,151 as of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015.
