Mission Statement

Our organization's mission is to continue the legacy of Dr. Hindi Krinsky, a 32 year old High School English Teacher and Literacy Coordinator, who tragically passed away in 2018 from a complications of Crohn’s Disease. Her goal was to share her love for reading and literature with her High School students.

By giving the gift of literacy, we are sharing Hindi's passion and keeping her memory alive.
