Fellow Rotarians…

Is your organization looking for more effective ways to service the educational needs of children in economically challenged families and underserved communities in your district?
Are you ready?

Are you seeking new ways to increase your membership, widen your audience, and encourage more volunteerism so you can make a greater impact in your community?
Do you have what it takes?

Do you want to make a lasting impact on children’s lives by empowering them with proven educational resources that inspire a life-long journey of learning?
Let's team up!

Sign up to join the Rotary Literacy Initiative and work with the global network of Rotary volunteers who are willing to tackle one of the world’s most pressing issues—declining literacy rates!

Welcome to the Rotary Literacy Initiative website! It is our vision to give every child the opportunity to become a “Smart Kid” by giving them access to free literacy resources (books and digital media) that not only build reading and writing skills, but equip them with a Life Skills Tool Box filled with personal skills, social skills and coping skills—skills that will help them live a happier, more fulfilling life.

To achieve this vision, we offer Rotary Clubs literacy programs that service children, young adults and families, with “life skills” books and a safe, fun-filled streaming website packed with multimedia e-books, educational videos, audiobook stories, entertaining podcasts, interactive games, and much more—streamed directly from our Reading Adventure Island website.

The Reading Adventure Island streaming website and the Smart Kidz Life Skills Library are designed to support your Rotary Club by giving you access to a reliable and consistent source of literacy resources so you can better service children and families, reach new audiences, and widen your donor base.

The Rotary Literacy Initiative is committed to minimizing the work and stress your Rotary Club has in impacting your community with literacy programs by maintaining a literacy streaming website and supportive media so that you can spend your time doing what you do best…promoting volunteerism, literacy, and making this world a better place.
