Make the World a Brighter Place
All kids can make a positive impact on their communities, and small actions can lead to big change. How will you make a difference, in your own way? Let the themed missions on this page inspire you.
Mission: Boost Literacy
Reading, writing, and speaking are important skills. Without consistent access to literacy education and materials such as books and magazines, people miss out on the chance to improve their communication with words. All around the country, kids are aiding literacy efforts in their community. From organizing book drives to participating in tutoring groups, every effort matters.
