We started WHO DAT Cares Foundation with one belief: every child deserves the opportunity to discover the power of reading, learning, and believing in themselves.
What began as a simple desire to place books into the hands of children has grown into a greater mission to strengthen literacy, build confidence, encourage creativity, and create meaningful opportunities for young people and their families.
Through our Read With Me Book Club, children's book distributions, engaging literacy experiences, and Young Authors Program, WHO DAT Cares Foundation is working to make reading more accessible, exciting, and impactful for children throughout our community.
But our vision goes beyond giving away books. We want to help create a culture where children are encouraged to read, families are equipped to support learning at home, and community organizations work together to make literacy a shared responsibility.
What started small is becoming a movement—one child, one book, one family, and one community at a time.
And we are just getting started.
