Like Maxi, one of every two children in Tucuman is poor, and has less chances to succeed in school. Low-income children have less access to books and early learning, and parents do not have the tools to be their child's first teacher. Ages 2 to 5 years are the most imporant, as early development affects chances in school. This project will champion 60 preschoolers and their families as they connect with books, and improve social and learning skills that will help them break the cycle of poverty. | Like Maxi, one of every two children in Tucuman is poor, and has less chances to succeed in school.

Join us to connect 4-year-old preeschooler Maxi and his friends to books for the very first time, during COVID-19. Maxi lives in Tucuman, one of the poorest regions in Argentina. Together, we can help Maxi and his community beat the odds, by creating home libraries for 60 preschoolers like him and giving parents tools as their child's first and most important teacher.
Challenge
Like Maxi, one of every two children in Tucuman is poor, and has less chances to succeed in school. Low-income children have less access to books and early learning, and parents do not have the tools to be their child's first teacher. Ages 2 to 5 years are the most imporant, as early development affects chances in school. This project will champion 60 preschoolers and their families as they connect with books, and improve social and learning skills that will help them break the cycle of poverty.
Long-Term Impact
Through home libraries and a home visting support system, this project will help Maxi and 60 other preschoolers and their families develop skills to improve school readiness, parent involvement, attendance, and standardized test scores in reading and math throughout elementary school. Success in school empowers families and children, and pushes them to beat the odds for themselves and their communities, through further education, leadership, and awareness.
