Page Ahead Children's Literacy Program

Page Ahead Children’s Literacy Program is the leading provider of children’s books and literacy services in Washington State. Since 1990, Page Ahead has given 4 million new books to more than 1 million children through collaborations with schools, nonprofits, and early learning centers across Washington.

Page Ahead’s goal is to close the opportunity gap in literacy experienced by children living in majority low income communities in Washington state. We serve children, families and communities – with new books for children; literacy support for families; and reading resources for communities.

Our Mission: Guided by the fact that literacy is essential to lifelong success, Page Ahead provides new books and develops reading activities that empower at-risk children.
