Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Part III, Line 4A

The "read aloud 15 minutes. Every child. Every parent. Every day." decade long national campaign continued to grow its reach across the united states. During this past year the campaign conducted month long campaign pulses in july, october, and march when partners across the nation shared more than 50 million custom designed campaign messages in english and spanish with the parents of young children from birth to age 8. The national campaign added dolly parton imagination library and the barbara bush foundation, growing its national leadership partners to 18. In addition, national campaign pulse partners grew from 850 in 46 states to over 3,800 in all 50 states. Read aloud's outreach included an expanded social media presence through advertising on facebook, pushing the facebook followers from 5,000 to over 100,000. Active social media engagement also continues on twitter and pinterest. The "read aloud 15 minutes, every child, every parent, every day." national campaign can only succeed through a combination of broad, national messaging and local grassroots activism. Parents, grandparents, caregivers, educators, businesses and all citizens need to see and understand the message. Campaign pulse partners on the ground ensure that messaging reaches caregivers and penetrates the community, aided by the distribution of signs, magnets, stickers, book bags, brochures and reading tips. Partners throughout the u.s. Now print and distribute materials provided through the read aloud partner toolkit.
