Goodbye Summer, Hello School!

From the Festival of Reading and Stories in the Spotlights to filling KC Royals’ Crown Libraries and spending time together with local families, we’ve loved every opportunity to make reading a little more fun and accessible for Kansas City kids.

Every book shared, every story read, every volunteer who showed up, and every family who joined us helped remind us that literacy grows through community and experiences. As we head into a new school year, we’re carrying all of that summer joy and momentum with us.

More than 7,500 books later, we're just getting started. 😎 Cheers to our third year of filling the little Crown Libraries all around town!

We've partnered with the Royals Foundation to help place thousands of books into Crown Libraries across Kansas City. From Start at Zero and Operation Breakthrough to Whittier Elementary, Banneker Elementary, and many more, it's been incredible to see these shelves filled with stories that inspire young readers.

Here's to another year of sharing the joy of reading with Kansas City!
