The charity organisation 1, 2, 3, Read 2 Me has a powerful vision that all children, regardless of their background or circumstances, should have access to quality books. The charity’s mission is to provide quality books and raise awareness of the importance of reading aloud to disadvantaged children across Australia.
For many children, access to books can be a challenge. This can be due to financial difficulties or living in remote areas where access to libraries is limited. Unfortunately, the lack of access to books can have a profound impact on a child’s development, particularly in terms of their literacy skills. That is why organizations like ‘1, 2, 3 Read to Me’ are essential in ensuring that all children have access to quality books.
The charity works to distribute quality books to children who may not otherwise have access to them. By doing so, they aim to promote a love of reading and increase literacy rates amongst disadvantaged children. Additionally, the charity seeks to raise awareness of the importance of reading aloud to children. Reading aloud has been shown to have numerous benefits, including improving vocabulary, comprehension, and critical thinking skills.
