We Need Your Help!

REadingADvantage, Inc. is committed to see that all children, regardless of their economic situation, have access to an ongoing supply of new books. Children with access to books in their homes can achieve more in school and in life.

With the help of our partners, donors, and dedicated volunteers we provided over 3,000 books to low-income children in Contra Costa County California in last year. Yet thousands more low-income children are still waiting for our help this year!

Together we can provide books and literacy workshops to low-income families in all geographic areas of Contra Costa County and make a difference in the lives of our children.

Will you join us in ensuring the children we serve have the books they need to be successful in school and beyond by donating today?

We are a California nonprofit corporation with IRS section 501 (c) (3) public charity tax-exempt status. Our Employer Identification Number for tax deductible contributions is #46-5742269. We are run by a volunteer staff. 100% of your donation supports our mission of free books and literacy workshops for low-income families.
