Become A Sponsor

As a sponsor for the Brown Girl and Brown Boy Literacy Foundation, you help us achieve our goals and objectives. Our mission is to bridge the literacy gap by providing books, free kids’ events, programs, and other resources to help children develop a love of reading.

We are committed to providing accessible, accurate, and reliable information on literacy to the youth of color because we know that literacy is power. Our programming and events are methodically designed to meet the needs of the youth of color, ages 4-12, who face systemic barriers to literacy.

We are currently seeking sponsors for our 2024 and 2025 literacy initiatives and events.

As a sponsor, your company would play a vital role in helping us reach our goals. Your support would help us purchase books and pay for event activity services for children in underserved communities. In addition, your company would be recognized as a supporter of literacy on our website and social media platforms. We believe that through increased access to resources and opportunities, marginalized children have the right to attain literacy in a way that is celebrated holistically. With sponsors, we can make this a reality.
