Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Since its beginning in 2009, Storytime Village has worked to help the youngest in our communities thrive through partnerships that provide early childhood development, family engagement around reading, and access to books. Storytime Village, Inc. is a Kansas based children's literacy nonprofit organization. With the support of parents and the community we inspire underserved children to read by providing them with free books and literacy resources. We recognize that, for children, books open doors to opportunities, new worlds and experiences, and overall build their self-esteem. For that reason, we strive to give every child in Kansas an opportunity for a better future through literacy.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Storytime Village has a mission to inspire a lifelong love of reading for underserved Kansas children from birth to eight years of age.

  • Storytime Village provided Read & Rise, Literacy Champions and LEAP Camp to underserved children and families. Students received books, literacy activities, mentoring and leadership opportunities. LEAP participants strengthened reading, writing and creativity while writing and publishing their own children's books.

    Expenses $248,929

  • Storytime Village engaged children and families through the Kansas Literacy Festival, Storytime in the Park, Read & Rise Breakfast, SHINE Awards, LEAP Camp and other outreach events. Participants received books, literacy activities, storytelling, entertainment and family resources while community partners supported literacy and education.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
