Teach a child to read; give a child a chance
While there are no guarantees, we believe that a hopeful future is brought through the gift of literacy and the power of a supportive and encouragement-filled relationship with a Reading Mentor.
No Agenda
Children’s Literacy Project™ (CLP) churches don't initiate service to the school as an avenue for proselytizing. We come to serve only in the ways we are invited to serve.
Serve Humbly
We encourage churches to recognize the expertise of school staff, and come alongside to fill in school-identified needs and gaps. We don’t criticize school curriculum or teaching philosophy.
Under-Promise and Over-Deliver
Schools and literacy non-profits too often experience volunteers who fail to follow through. TKR organizations keep their word.
Serve Together
We urge churches to encourage their whole congregation to be present with the school(s) they serve, supporting school activities and the reading program. Serving as a community is more fulfilling for everybody.
