Asia Pacific

Imagine your life without education, without the opportunity to reach your highest potential. This is the reality for 250 million children across the world today.

Room to Read is a global organization transforming the lives of millions of children in low-income countries across Asia and Africa by focusing on literacy and gender equality in education. Through Room to Read’s innovative model, we work in collaboration with local communities, partner organizations and governments to develop literacy skills and a habit of reading among primary school children and ensure girls can complete secondary school with the skills necessary to negotiate key life decisions.

For nine consecutive years, Room to Read has received Charity Navigator's highest rating of four stars for financial accountability and transparency. We are committed to measuring our results and reporting these results to our stakeholders as we consider transparency and fidelity central to our success.
