Please Help: Bring Reading Rainbow Back for Every Child, Everywhere.

LeVar Burton from the introduction video:

At breakfast, Susan felt uneasy as she ate her meal. Her father noticed that she was deep in thought. “What’s wrong?” her father asked.

That is a passage that every 4th grader in this country should be able to read and comprehend. 25% of them can’t. One in 4 children in America are growing up functionally illiterate and that is a situation that is completely unacceptable.

Agreed. If you can help, please pledge. I remember Reading Rainbow from when I was a child. It would be awesome to see this hit 5 million dollars.

I just pledged $125.

Please watch the video and consider helping if you can.
