Incorporated in January 2024 and granted 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status, the IRIS Literacy Project partners with non-profit organizations that serve children and families. We offer our services completely free of charge.

The IRIS Literacy Project partners with organizations that serve at-risk, disadvantaged, and/or marginalized populations. We work alongside our partners to ensure that books, materials, and videos reach children who need them.

The IRIS Literacy Project (ILP) wants to start children on the road to success by bringing the fun of reading into their lives. We help our partner organizations establish a library of children’s books, but that is not enough.

Children need to hear books read aloud. This concept is so important that we carry it in our name:  Interactive Reading Impacts Success.

IRIS books have a video accessible by a QR code.  When clicked, the video opens, and the child can hear and see someone reading the book.

ILP also wants to create a calm and relaxing setting for children to enjoy their IRIS books. We work with our partners to establish such an environment by helping them create reading nooks.
