Highlights and Kids Need to Read: Please Join Our #GivingTuesday Partnership

The young man above perfectly illustrates what happens whenever we hand out Highlights magazines to the children we serve. Curiosity over the cover is followed by expressions of wonder and great smiles, and sometimes even exclamations of delight (as was the case with this young fellow)! We consider the magazines to be one of our most effective resources—pure magic when it comes to interesting young children in reading! Everywhere we go, everywhere we give, a Highlights or Highlights High Five magazine is put into every child’s hands. What a magnificent tool in our work to help kids discover the power and joy of literacy!

You can help us continue to provide this exceptional magazine to disadvantaged children throughout the nation by joining our fifth annual #GivingTuesday partnership with Highlights. For every subscription ordered on Tuesday, November 27th, Kids Need to Read will receive twelve copies to give to children in need of vital reading resources. Last year, we received over 53,600 free magazines and activity books valued at $267,564, so this is a highly impactful endeavor! Please share the news and support this important drive, while providing this wonderful resource to the children you love!

On November 27th, #GivingTuesday, Highlights will be offering magazine subscriptions starting at $9.99. Click here to order Highlights subscriptions! Subscriptions to Highlights, Highlights High Five, Highlights High Five Bilingüe, and Highlights Hello are all included in the drive.

We are grateful to Highlights for their generosity to Kids Need to Read and the disadvantaged children we serve, as well as all of you who support this vital annual drive!

You may also support Kids Need to Read’s literacy programs for children by making a #GivingTuesday contribution on our donation page. Also, Facebook (Donate button on page) and PayPal will be matching cash donations, so they are fantastic avenues of support!

Thank you for assisting in Kids Need to Read’s mission to provide literacy support to children in need of vital reading resources.

Tis the Season

Once Upon a Time… It was a dark and stormy night… This is the tale that was told to me…: Throughout history, winter has been a season rich in the tradition of storytelling, serving as a captivating blend of entertainment and education for individuals of all ages. This enduring legacy is exemplified in Beowulf, one of the oldest recorded stories, where the narrative opens with a compelling command, “Listen! we have heard of the might of the kings,”. No matter the opening line, the timeless power and importance of story and literacy is in its ability to connect generations and communities through the ages.
