Our Blog - Celebrating 5 Years of Shining a Light on Young Readers! - Start Lighthouse launched in 2020 with a vision to build home libraries for students during the widespread school shutdown. In May, we held our first in-person event in the parking lot of P.S./M.S. 5, distributing 300 literacy kits to kids in the South Bronx and sparking a lasting partnership with Port Morris School. That summer, we kicked off our Racial Justice Literacy Program, transforming kids into Little Woke Activists through a curriculum built around books on identity, community, and social justice. In addition, all throughout our first year, we held impactful workshops like Power of the Vote, Dismantling the School to Prison Pipeline, and Social Emotional Learning Through a Racial Equity Lens.

Our Blog - Celebrating 5 Years of Shining a Light on Young Readers! - Building off of this momentum, in 2021, we introduced our Literary Adventures program in Title I schools across the Bronx. These events gave students the chance to meet their favorite authors, illustrators, and poets, and take home a personal copy of their book. Over the years, our students have met more than 45 creators, including Susie Jaramillo, Alyssa Reynoso Morri, and Keith Henry Brown. In the same month, we also started our in-person book-shopping initiative, giving 1,400 students the opportunity to select their own engaging, multicultural books to build their home libraries.

And we didn’t stop there. In May 2023, Start Lighthouse took our mission to Brooklyn, bringing Literacy Adventures and book-shopping events to students in our neighboring borough. In addition, in September 2024, we launched our third Literacy Hub at P.S. 161/P.S. 17x, continuing to expand our impact and reach.

Our Blog - A Spotlight on Start Lighthouse: How TD Bank Helps Us Shine - Lastly, TD Bank has worked tirelessly to amplify Start Lighthouse’s visibility, leading to national recognition, including our recent ABC spotlight. Thanks to TD Bank, our organization welcomed ABC to our Literacy Hub at P.S./M.S. 5. The ABC team sat down with students, school faculty, and our staff to highlight how Start Lighthouse has fostered a vibrant literacy culture in schools across the Bronx, inspiring the next generation of lifelong readers. Not only does this recognition showcase Start Lighthouse’s profound impact, but it also underscores TD Bank’s unwavering support for and dedication to our mission.

Why We're Here - Childhood illiteracy is an everyone, everywhere problem. This is especially the case in the Bronx, where 70% of students do not read proficiently. The biggest barrier to literacy in the Bronx is access to books. Since its founding in March 2020, Start Lighthouse has distributed more than 21,015 brand-new multicultural books, with a value of more than $400,385.
https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6140e0e343bf032193baef34/b4d06c55-0b0b-4339-8dbf-71c1f9acecd3/IMG_1050.jpg
Why We're Here - 1 book is available for every 300 children in low-income communities as compared to an average of 12 books in the homes of their more affluent peers. In the Bronx, 58% of residents are rent-burdened and 70% of students read below grade level. Access to books shouldn’t require a sacrifice on food or rent money.

Why We're Here - Children who grow up in homes with at least 20 books get three years more of schooling than children in bookless homes. Kids who read with parents or caregivers for 20 minutes each night are exposed to 1.8 million words a year. By middle school, they have read 851 hours and are likely to score 90% better than their peers. Across New York State, 45% of schools do not have libraries and there is less than one librarian for every 3,400 students.

Why We're Here - Start Lighthouse addresses this crisis with a three-pronged approach to create compelling, rewarding reading experiences for children and families. Our method includes “Literary Adventures” hosted in conjunction with partner public schools to build home libraries and foster a sense of book ownership; diverse representation in the books we distribute so students see themselves in what they read; and creating permanent spaces in partner public schools to support literacy development for students as well as family members and caregivers.
