Mission
UNITED THROUGH READING STRENGTHENS MILITARY FAMILIES' LITERACY, EMOTIONAL BONDS, AND WELL-BEING THROUGH THE POWER OF READING TOGETHER AT EVERY AGE, NO MATTER THE DISTANCE.
-
United Through Reading offers military service members the opportunity to be video-recorded reading books to their children, and then the books and videos are delivered to the children so that they can follow along as their loved ones read their favorite story. United Through Reading also promotes literacy by providing books to military children both directly and through partnerships with like minded organizations. This program creates and strengthens emotional connections between parents and their children, encourages literacy and makes homecoming easier. According to surveys, 93% of participants report a decrease in their childrens anxiety during deployment and 78% of service member participants report a reduction in their own stress during deployment.

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.
