Book drive no. 3 with Shop RLT for The Book Truck and The Claremont Forum. We collected 573 books to provide free reading materials and support literacy amongst underserved teen communities and incarcerated folks.
60% of teens in the US do not read at grade level and 70% of inmates in American prisons cannot read above a 4th-grade level. At the most basic level, literacy leads to better futures, and everyone deserves that opportunity.
Special thank you to all who donated and to Sanzo and KOLLO for providing refreshments for the cause.
