ONE BOOK builds a lifetime of agency.
Room to Read is a leading nonprofit for children’s literacy and girls’ education across Asia and Africa.
CUMULATIVE impact.
Room to Read has invested over US$1 billion in global education. By the end of 2027, Room to Read aims to double the number of children served each year, the number of communities supported each year and the number of partners worked with, while delivering positive, measurable learning and life outcomes. Through our partnership with Room to Read, funding for local school libraries and sponsorship for Room to Read’s Gender Equality Program has been made possible.
Room to Read has benefited 52 million children in 29 countries globally since 2000.
THE LITERACY of movement.
EXPERIENCES that spark imagination.
San Francisco Ballet challenges the perception of dance as ephemeral entertainment, re-framing it as a rigorous intellectual and communicative discipline. Movement is a primary language through which humans "read" their environment and understand the world. San Francisco Ballet’s education programs provide experiences that foster artistic expression, ignite creativity, and invite exploration through the arts.
