INDIGO LOVE OF READING FOUNDATION
Itâs World Literacy Day
Today weâre reminded of the power of reading to open doors and minds. Yet in Canada, many children still donât have equal access to books. Thatâs why the Indigo Love of Reading Foundation provides books to elementary schools in high-needs communities. So more children can be inspired to start their great story.

Supporting Indigenous Communities
Since 2017 the Indigo Love of Reading Foundation has contributed over $1m to promote literacy within Indigenous communities. Most recently, over $340 thousand from our $1 Million Community Response Fund went to support First Nations, Metis, and Inuit families to promote literacy while at home during the COVID-19 pandemic. âOur students absolutely require reading materials around them. This is so important at this time of much home learning.â - Grade 8/9 Teacher, White Bear Education Complex via Treaty Alliance partnership via Treaty Education Alliance partnership.
Children's Literacy
âThis grant has been a game changer for our school. Students are now engaged in reading, talking about reading, looking for books that interest them, and excited about books that inform us of our world. We are so thankful for the positive impact that this grant has created in our school community. All of our students now see themselves as readers, and really enjoy reading.â â Parkdale School, Literacy Fund Grant recipient
Representation Matters
âAs a mother of two Black children in a community that has very few Black people, it fills my heart to see the school taking action to bring diverse representation into the classroom through books. Having Indigo as a community partner enabled that to happen.â - Queensbury Elementary School, Community Response Fund recipient
