| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1, DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION MISSION: | A NATIONAL PUBLIC CHARITY BASED IN WASHINGTON, D.C., THE BARBARA BUSH FOUNDATION FOR FAMILY LITERACY IS DEDICATED TO HELPING FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES NATIONWIDE BUILD BRIGHTER FUTURES THROUGH LITERACY. WE HAVE BEEN THE NATION'S LEADING ADVOCATE FOR FAMILY LITERACY FOR MORE THAN THREE DECADES. ESTABLISHED BY FIRST LADY BARBARA BUSH IN 1989, WE HAVE SUPPORTED EVIDENCE-BASED FAMILY LITERACY PROGRAMS IN ALL 50 STATES AND THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA. FORMER FIRST LADY BARBARA BUSH CHOSE LITERACY AS HER LIFE'S WORK BASED ON A SIMPLE, BUT POWERFUL BELIEF: "IF MORE PEOPLE COULD READ, WRITE, AND COMPREHEND, WE WOULD BE THAT MUCH CLOSER TO SOLVING SO MANY OF THE PROBLEMS PLAGUING OUR SOCIETY." RESEARCH CONTINUES TO PROVE THAT SHE WAS RIGHT, LINKING LITERACY TO SOME OF TODAY'S MOST PRESSING CONCERNS, INCLUDING ECONOMIC GROWTH, PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY, AND CIVIC ENGAGEMENT. YET TODAY, MORE THAN HALF OF U.S. ADULTS LACK PROFICIENCY IN LITERACY, READING BELOW THE ADULT EQUIVALENT OF A SIXTH-GRADE LEVEL. ABOUT 43 MILLION AMERICANS - 28% OF U.S. ADULTS - READ BELOW THE EQUIVALENT OF A THIRD-GRADE LEVEL. YOUNG READERS ARE STRUGGLING AS WELL: 69% OF OUR NATION'S FOURTH GRADERS READ BELOW GRADE LEVEL. THIS CRISIS IS COSTLY A GALLUP STUDY COMMISSIONED BY THE BARBARA BUSH FOUNDATION DETERMINED THAT THE U.S. COULD BE LOSING $2.2 TRILLION - OR 10% OF GDP - ANNUALLY DUE TO LOW ADULT LITERACY RATES. IT IS ALSO MULTIGENERATIONAL, AS RESEARCH SHOWS THAT A PARENT'S LITERACY LEVEL IS THE SINGLE GREATEST PREDICTOR OF THEIR CHILD'S FUTURE ACADEMIC SUCCESS, OUTWEIGHING OTHER FACTORS INCLUDING NEIGHBORHOOD AND FAMILY INCOME. WE WORK TO ADDRESS OUR NATION'S LITERACY CHALLENGE BY PROVIDING HIGH-QUALITY PROGRAMS AND RESOURCES THAT HELP FAMILIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY BUILD LITERACY SKILLS, AS WELL AS DRIVING MULTISECTOR ENGAGEMENT IN LITERACY ISSUES THROUGH RESEARCH AND EDUCATION INITIATIVES. THESE EFFORTS ARE DETAILED IN OUR PROGRAM SERVICES ACCOMPLISHMENTS. |
| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A, PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS: | BUILDING LITERACY SKILLS WE DELIVER HIGH-QUALITY LITERACY PROGRAMS AND RESOURCES THAT HELP PARENTS/CAREGIVERS AND SCHOOL-AGED CHILDREN IMPROVE THEIR READING, WRITING, AND COMPREHENSION SKILLS. READING MENTORING PROGRAMS RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THIRD GRADE READING LEVELS ARE A KEY PREDICTOR OF CHILDREN'S FUTURE SUCCESS IN SCHOOL AND IN LIFE. CHILDREN WHO BUILD THE LITERACY SKILLS THEY NEED TO READ PROFICIENTLY BY THE END OF THIRD GRADE ARE FOUR TIMES MORE LIKELY TO GRADUATE FROM HIGH SCHOOL THAN THEIR PEERS WHO READ BELOW GRADE LEVEL. SINCE 2002, OUR READING MENTORING PROGRAMS HAVE HELPED YOUNG READERS IN GRADES 1-3 BUILD THE ESSENTIAL LITERACY SKILLS THAT THEY NEED TO MAKE THE CRITICAL TRANSITION FROM LEARNING TO READ TO READING TO LEARN. BOTH PROGRAMS ARE INFORMED BY THE SCIENCE OF READING, AND EMPLOY THE RESEARCH-PROVEN STRATEGY OF MENTORING TO IMPROVE OUTCOMES. DURING THE 2024-2025 ACADEMIC YEAR, OUR READING MENTORING PROGRAMS SERVED APPROXIMATELY 2,800 STUDENTS ACROSS 75 PROGRAMS IN SIX STATES (CONNECTICUT, FLORIDA, MAINE, OKLAHOMA, SOUTH CAROLINA, AND TEXAS). READSQUAD OUR LONGEST-RUNNING READING MENTORING PROGRAM, READSQUAD, PAIRS TEEN MENTORS WITH STUDENTS IN FIRST, SECOND, AND THIRD GRADES WHO ARE, ON AVERAGE, FOUR MONTHS BEHIND IN READING. TEENS RECEIVE TRAINING AS READING MENTORS, AND MEET REGULARLY WITH THEIR MENTEES FOR 20 ONE-TO-ONE MENTORING SESSIONS, USING TARGETED STRATEGIES AND ACTIVITIES TO BOOST LITERACY SKILLS AND CONFIDENCE. EACH OF THE 16-20 BOOKS THAT CHILDREN READ WITH THEIR TEEN MENTOR IS ADDED TO THEIR HOME LIBRARIES, ACCOMPANIED BY A PARENT GUIDE, AVAILABLE IN ENGLISH AND SPANISH, THAT OFFERS PARENTS AND CAREGIVERS THE OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE AN ACTIVE ROLE IN THEIR CHILD'S LEARNING. READSQUAD CONTINUES TO ACHIEVE OUTSTANDING RESULTS. THE MOST RECENT INDEPENDENT EVALUATION SHOWED: STUDENTS PARTICIPATING IN READSQUAD INCREASED THEIR READING SKILLS BY AN AVERAGE OF 1.18 GRADE LEVELS OVER THE SEVEN-MONTH PROGRAM (ESPECIALLY SUBSTANTIAL GIVEN THAT MENTEES BEGIN READING WELL BELOW GRADE LEVEL). THIS TRANSLATES TO 45% MORE GROWTH THAN A TYPICAL STUDENT WOULD BE EXPECTED TO ACHIEVE IN AN ACADEMIC YEAR. TEEN MENTORS BENEFIT AS WELL. PARTICIPATING HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS REPORTED THAT THEIR COMMUNICATION (84%), LEADERSHIP (70%), AND TEACHING SKILLS (79%) HAD IMPROVED THROUGH THEIR PARTICIPATION IN READSQUAD, WHILE HALF (51%) FELT THEIR PROBLEM-SOLVING SKILLS HAD GROWN. AMONG MENTORS WHO WERE SOPHOMORES OR JUNIORS IN HIGH SCHOOL, TWO-THIRDS (66%) FELT THE EXPERIENCE WOULD GIVE THEM A COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE WHEN APPLYING TO COLLEGE, WHILE 69% FELT THE EXPERIENCE WOULD HELP THEM WITH A JOB. BOOK EXPLORERS BOOK EXPLORERS, OUR NEWEST READING MENTORING PROGRAM, BUILDS ON THE SUCCESS OF READSQUAD TO HELP TARGET "SUMMER SLIDE OR COVID-19-RELATED LEARNING GAPS BY ALLOWING STUDENTS TO KEEP PROGRESSING YEAR-ROUND. LIKE READSQUAD, BOOK EXPLORERS PAIRS STUDENTS IN GRADES 1-3 WITH A READING MENTOR AND USES TARGETED STRATEGIES AND ACTIVITIES TO BUILD LITERACY SKILLS AND CONFIDENCE. THIS 12-SESSION PROGRAM IS DESIGNED FOR FLEXIBLE IMPLEMENTATION, SUITABLE FOR USE IN A VARIETY OF SETTINGS SUCH AS LIBRARIES, COMMUNITY CENTERS, OR AFTERSCHOOL PROGRAMS. IT ALSO OFFERS VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES FOR BOTH TEENS AND ADULTS - INCLUDING CORPORATE VOLUNTEERS - TO SERVE AS MENTORS. THE MOST RECENT INDEPENDENT EVALUATION DETERMINED THAT MENTEES' READING SKILLS INCREASED AN AVERAGE OF 0.79 GRADE LEVELS OVER THE COURSE OF THE 12-SESSION PROGRAM, WHICH IS 44% MORE GROWTH THAN WOULD BE ANTICIPATED DURING THIS TIME FRAME. ALL BOOK EXPLORERS PROGRAM RESOURCES ARE FULLY ONLINE, AND ARE DESIGNED TO ENGAGE AND FOSTER A LOVE OF READING IN YOUNG LEARNERS. MATERIALS INCLUDE NONFICTION AND NARRATIVE DIGITAL BOOKS. EACH BOOK IS ACCOMPANIED BY A MENTOR GUIDE THAT HELPS MENTORS MAKE THE MOST OF THEIR SESSIONS, AND A PARENT GUIDE FULL OF FUN, ENRICHING ACTIVITIES. ALL 56 BOOK EXPLORERS PARENT GUIDES AND A COLLECTION OF SELECT BOOK TITLES ARE AVAILABLE IN SPANISH.

TOO SMALL TO FAIL/CLINTON FOUNDATION PARTNERSHIP IN SEPTEMBER 2024, SECRETARY HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON ANNOUNCED THE LAUNCH OF AN EXCITING NEW PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN THE BARBARA BUSH FOUNDATION, TOO SMALL TO FAIL (THE CLINTON FOUNDATION'S EARLY EDUCATION INITIATIVE), AND THE UNITED WAY OF PENNSYLVANIA. THROUGH A SERIES OF 250 ACTIVATIONS ACROSS THE STATE IN 2025 AND 2026, THIS NEW PARTNERSHIP WILL EQUIP PENNSYLVANIA FAMILIES WITH HIGH-QUALITY EARLY LITERACY RESOURCES, EMPOWERING PARENTS TO SUPPORT LEARNING IN MEANINGFUL AND FUN WAYS. ACTIVATIONS WILL FOCUS ON THREE MAIN STRATEGIES: PEOPLE (TRAINING "TRUSTED MESSENGERS" TO TALK WITH FAMILIES ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF TALKING, READING, AND SINGING WITH THEIR CHILDREN); PLACES (TRANSFORMING EVERYDAY SPACES SUCH AS LAUNDROMATS, PLAYGROUNDS, HEALTH CLINICS, GROCERY STORES, HIKING TRAILS, AND COMMUNITY CENTERS INTO VIBRANT EARLY LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES FOR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES TO TALK, READ, AND SING WITH EACH OTHER); AND RESOURCES (PROVIDING FAMILIES WITH HIGH-QUALITY EARLY LEARNING RESOURCES AND CHILDREN'S BOOKS). IN 2024, TOO SMALL TO FAIL AND THE BARBARA BUSH FOUNDATION BEGAN WORKING WITH UNITED WAY ORGANIZATIONS IN SIX DIFFERENT PENNSYLVANIA COUNTIES, PROVIDING AN OVERVIEW OF RESOURCES AND CONDUCTING DISCUSSIONS TO EXPLORE ACTIVATION IDEAS AND OPPORTUNITIES. DIGITAL LITERACY RESOURCES DIGITAL LITERACY - THE SKILLS NEEDED TO LIVE, LEARN, AND WORK IN TODAY'S INCREASINGLY INFORMATION AND TECHNOLOGY-DRIVEN SOCIETY - IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN EVER. FROM APPLYING FOR A JOB TO NAVIGATING A TELEHEALTH VISIT TO HELPING CHILDREN WITH HOMEWORK, WE RELY ON OUR DIGITAL SKILLS IN NEARLY EVERY ASPECT OF OUR DAILY LIVES. CURRENT RESEARCH SHOWS THAT 92% OF JOBS ACROSS INDUSTRIES IN THE U.S. LABOR MARKET REQUIRE DIGITAL SKILLS. HOWEVER, ONE-THIRD OF AMERICAN WORKERS CURRENTLY STRUGGLE TO PERFORM THEIR JOB EFFECTIVELY DUE TO LIMITED DIGITAL PROBLEM-SOLVING SKILLS. TO HELP BRIDGE THIS GAP, WE CONTINUE TO TRAIN EDUCATORS AND MENTORS NATIONWIDE ON THE USE OF PROMOTING DIGITAL LITERACY FOR ADULT LEARNERS, OUR RESOURCE GUIDE DEVELOPED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH DIGITAL PROMISE. THIS PEER-REVIEWED GUIDE WAS DEVELOPED TO SUPPORT EDUCATORS, LIBRARY STAFF, TUTORS, AND MENTORS WHO ARE WORKING WITH ADULT LEARNERS ON BUILDING LITERACY SKILLS. |
