Reading is your first literacy. It opens doors to lifelong learning and success.

Through a collaborative effort between the City of Cleveland, the Cleveland Public Library, the Cleveland Teachers Union, and 30 community partners, the Cleveland READS challenge was launched to get more Clevelanders reading and provide books and literacy resources to our community.

Reading is foundational to everything we do. Boosting literacy is one way towards improving outcomes in a community – from academic success to workforce development, from improved health outcomes to reduced crime. Reading has a proven return on investment.

Please participate as a sponsor of the Cleveland READS Celebration and help us raise more awareness of the importance of literacy.
