We will be applying stickers to books for distribution at our fun & free literacy workshop designed to help parents foster a love for reading at home with their children.

80% of children ages 8-10 in Clayton County are reading BELOW grade level. We anticipate that these FREE workshops will infuse a huge dose of excitement around literacy in Clayton County.

We hope you will join us in making a difference in our community!

Mission Statement

We strive to strengthen communities of color by increasing access to quality books and literacy resources.

Description

Family Literacy of Georgia, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit Georgia organization based in Morrow, Georgia was founded in 2016 by a retired Clayton County Public School high school English teacher. The agency seeks to increase access to quality books and literacy resources in communities of color. In 2021 Family Literacy of Georgia was selected by Little Free Library(r) to partner in the initial roll-out of Read in Color , an initiative launched following George Floyd’s murder, to promote literacy in communities of color by intentionally placing Little Free Library book-sharing stations in diverse neighborhoods.
