About Literacy is for Everyone (LIFE)
Independent, not-for-profit organisation, Literacy Is For Everyone (LIFE), works alongside government, local schools, and educators to advocate for quality education for all, and to provide LIFE-changing resources and volunteer power to positively impact and significantly improve literacy levels. LIFE is the largest donor of books into the public school system with 44,000 books donated, and counting. Their programmes include Paired Reading, where specially trained volunteers read with struggling readers for 30 minutes each week; Partners in Print, which offers parents and caregivers tips and tricks to support literacy within the home; Education for Everyone, a collaborative initiative providing laptops to close the digital divide; and Thrive By Five, LIFE’s latest early childhood literacy programme, targeting the development of foundational literacy skills in the 0-5 age group. To donate or volunteer, email volunteer@life.org.ky.

You can also donate gently used or new books by emailing: books@life.org.ky.
Volunteers are always needed to help with projects, fundraise, or to read with children.
