We’re celebrating a major milestone—We Strive for Literacy’s first birthday on March 28th! One year ago, our founder, Cortney Wallace, was deeply moved by Emily Hanford’s investigative series Sold a Story, which exposed the literacy crisis affecting millions of children. Inspired to take action, she left her tech career behind to follow a calling—driven by passion, purpose, and faith—to ensure every child has access to effective literacy instruction. Thanks to your support, we’ve made incredible progress in just one year!
