Courtney Vogt, Director of Spread The Word Nevada

Let’s face it. Most kids are struggling to read for many reasons, however, a lack of books in the home is a major factor. What started in a school library with gently used books and a rolling cart has grown into a 25-year statewide movement, fueled by the passion of volunteers, the dedication of educators, the generosity of donors, and the support of our incredible community. Today, Spread the Word Nevada has placed more than 8.5 million books into the hands of children who need them most. That’s a testament to the lives changed, dreams nurtured, and futures made brighter. Joining us today is Courtney Vogt, Spread the Word Nevada Director for Northern Nevada, a wonderful nonprofit organization that’s leading the charge to transform literacy across the state – one book, one child, one future at a time. spreadthewordnevada.org or 775-507-7007 Sageintl.com or 800-254-5779
