Our story would not be the same without your chapter

Celebrating our 25th anniversary around the globe

This year, Room to Read turns 25 — and the milestone belongs to all of us. From classrooms in Vietnam to schoolyards in Tanzania, Room to Read staff gatherings in Nepal and global events with our supporters, we are celebrating 52 million children benefited, and a quarter century of unlocking the power of education, together. 

These moments reflect the dedication, passion and heart of our global community, a community committed to ensuring every child has the room they need to read, learn and grow. As we mark this anniversary, we invite you to join the celebration. Engage with us on social media, sign up to receive our latest news or make an anniversary gift — an investment in the next 25 years of possibility for millions more children around the world.

We could not be more grateful for your chapter in our story. Join us in writing our next chapter of change.
