Mission
The mission of The Reading Initiative of MD is to ensure that children in low income communities have access to books to build their own library, develop the skills needed to be confident readers, and increase their knowledge of the world around them through literacy and experiences.
Vision
The vision of the Reading Initiative of MD, Inc is to build confident readers, to ensure that students, especially early readers, are equipped with what's needed to succeed academically and socially.
“Literacy is a bridge from misery to hope. It is a tool for daily life in modern society. It is a bulwark against poverty, and a building block of development, an essential complement to investments in roads, dams, clinics and factories. Literacy is a platform for democratization, and a vehicle for the promotion of cultural and national identity. Especially for girls and women, it is an agent of family health and nutrition. For everyone, everywhere, literacy is, along with education in general, a basic human right.... Literacy is, finally, the road to human progress and the means through which every man, woman and child can realize his or her full potential.”
― Kofi Annan
