Read 3: Help Grow Young Minds

Help shape a child’s mind by reading to them three times a week. When you read to a child they develop the reading skills they need to succeed in school. Sadly, not all children have books in their homes. That’s why in 2011 H‑E‑B launched Read 3. Since 2011, H‑E‑B has donated nearly 4 million books to children in need.
