The mission of BookMates is to provide a nurturing, one-to-one literacy experience for at-risk children that will encourage them to develop a love of reading and will provide them with a foundation to succeed in school and in life. BookMates continues to improve childhood literacy by providing weekly one-to-one reading sessions with caring adult volunteers for more than 3,000 disadvantaged student

s in kindergarten through second grade. As the volunteers share the joy of reading, they also expose the children to a wide range of literature, expanding their vocabulary which helps them to improve their comprehension and increases their motivation to read.
