Storyshares, a literacy organization dedicated to inspiring a love of reading across the globe.

Our Purpose

CAN'T READ
above a basic level.

The key to spreading the foundational & transformational power to read? Irresistible books. Readers are made among the pages of the books they love.

At Storyshares, we are reimagining a global library to woo more readers and combat illiteracy with the joy of reading.

Our Solution

"Once you learn to read, you will be forever free." Frederick Douglass

Mission Statement

‍Beyond grade 3, literacy is a matter of equity. Storyshares empowers older striving readers through a cohesive approach: relevant content, expert educator training, and coherent school systems. We don't just teach reading; we restore engagement and expand life outcomes for students in grades 3–12.

Storyshares is transforming adolescent literacy

School doesn't end in third grade. Literacy instruction shouldn't either.

Our comprehensive solution leverages engaging content, high-quality instructional materials, and best practices in literacy to support struggling readers in grades 3 and beyond.
