Booked Kids

"I've never seen the White House in real life," my student said as we read her favorite book, Grace for President. As only children can, she candidly continued without prompt. "We don't have money, and only rich people can go to the White House." She turned the page without skipping a beat.
I had to do something.
I am the coordinator of a literacy center who dreamed of Booked Kids. Booked Kids is an initiative that will enable children ages 5-11 to discover new possibilities by designing educational trips within their community. The possibilities are magnified when parents are coached to lead their children through grade-appropriate reading activities at a specified time during the trip. By pairing reading with dynamic learning experiences, children are encouraged to become lifelong readers.
Your support of Booked Kids will not only shape growing readings, it will also create unforgettable experiences for families in the Washington DC metro area.
All funds raised will cover food, transportation, and instructional material costs for parents and children attending trips in the months of May, June, and July.
