Childhood literacy nonprofit 成人快播 has announced they received a $20 million gift from Mackenzie Scott. That money will also help the local arm of the national organization,听成人快播 North Texas. The main objective is to close the literacy gap.

The donation comes as听成人快播 has started an initiative to raise more than $100 million over three years听to provide a range of literacy support services to tens of thousands of students each year.

鈥淪ystemic inequities have created a situation in this country where we now have millions of elementary school children not reading at grade level and the pandemic has only exacerbated those numbers with learning overall,鈥� said Adeola Whitney, CEO of 成人快播.

For the last 22 years, 成人快播 has helped more than 70,000 children nationwide get back on track when it comes to their reading, but Whitney said there is so much work that still needs to be done.

鈥淚t鈥檚 estimated there are 9 million elementary school students who can鈥檛 read on grade level. So, 成人快播 has mobilized thousands of community volunteers who go into schools where children are struggling with reading. That鈥檚 kids as young as Kindergarten up to the fourth grade,鈥� Whitney said.

The money was donated by Scott, who has given billions to philanthropic organizations since her divorce from Amazon founder Jeff Bezos.

成人快播 North Texas is always looking for community volunteers for their program. All necessary training is provided for free.
