For 15 years, Reading Legacies has brought families together through the joy of reading.
Nearly 70,000 children, youth, adults, and seniors have benefited from our programs, strengthening bonds and fostering connections.
Our mission is simple: to bring families closer through reading. With programs like Book Bridges, Youth Readers, First Teachers, and Storybook Inspirations, we create lasting connections and inspire a love of reading across generations. Join us as we embark on our next 15 years of serving communities. Together, let’s ensure that every child experiences the joy of caring relationships and a lifelong love of reading.
It takes just 15 minutes to make a difference!
For Maribel de la Rosas, the 15 minutes she could spend reading to her four children via recorded video was a lifeline.
Thinking back on her incarceration, she says Reading Legacies was “the way for me to reconnect with my children.”
Since her release, she now works as a valued member of the Reading Legacies team in our Book Bridges program, recording other incarcerated parents reading aloud to their children at home.
