Your Impact on North Texas Giving Day: A Record-Breaking Success!

Thanks to your generosity, Catch Up & Read raised an incredible $230,345 from 199 donors on North Texas Giving Day!

This overwhelming support will have a profound impact on students in underserved communities, equipping them with the reading skills they need to succeed by the end of third grade.

Elizabeth Miller, a school counselor at Ben Milam Elementary and one of our CAR teachers, shared a heartfelt reflection on her experience with the program:

"Last year, I had the unexpected pleasure of being a Catch Up & Read Teacher. I loved it! Working with our students was an absolute JOY. The CAR staff and literacy coaches are so good to us... I feel appreciated and valued. While I am not their biggest contributor by far – I am CAR’s biggest FAN though, and I donate to CAR when I can. $10 here, $20 there. ANY amount helps—each dollar adds up. I invite you... I encourage you to donate to the wonderful organization of Catch Up & Read. Thank you!!”

Because of supporters like Elizabeth—and you—Catch Up & Read can continue to provide crucial resources to young readers, transforming lives one student at a time. Your donation helps invest in their education, giving them the tools to thrive both in school and beyond.

Thank you for making this possible! Your commitment to supporting students and teachers is shaping a brighter future through literacy.
