Taghyeer Organization/ We Love Reading Program is an innovative model that provides a practical, cost efficient, sustainable, grassroots approach empowering communities from low and mid income communities around the world to create changemakers through reading. WLR supports the activism of local volunteers to increase reading levels among children 2-10 by focusing on the readaloud experience to instill the love of reading for pleasure among children to become lifelong learners. We aim to create system change. We create changemakers by recruiting and training adults and youth from local communities to provide read-aloud sessions for local children in safe, public spaces. Each year, WLR volunteers read to tens of thousands of children in public parks, community centers, mosques and other faith-based settings, nurseries, refugee camps, and other locales. We serve diverse populations and communities irrespective of gender, religion, social status, disability, literacy level, educational experience, etc. The training is either implemented in face-to-face settings or via our online platform to allow reaching wider audience of people wanting to volunteer and become reading ambassadors.

We are an institution founded in 1953, in Mexicali BC, Mexico, under the direction of the Trinitarian Sisters, we serve girls and young women who have been abused or are at risk in their communities. We focus in offering them protection, safeguarding their dignity and rights while giving them the opportunity to make a change in their lives. Our mission is to be an open door to hope, giving girls and young women the opportunity of a new life. WELCOMING without condition, ORIENTING those who are confused, LOOKING for those who are lost, CELEBRATING their achievements, TEACHING the path that leads them to their own fulfillment and happiness, FREEING them from any slavery, LIFTING UP those who have fallen, ACCOMPANYING them in their fight to regain their dignity and SENDING them to announce the good news of their lives. We make them feel loved and respected. We teach them values by setting the example: honesty, integrity, humility, empathy, respect, tolerance, patience, truthfulness, responsibility, discipline, and hard work are some of which we practice. Our Vision is to be a home with appropriate and dignified spaces that allow the practice of the necessary activities and programs where the girls can discover the treasure that they carry within, we do this by helping them maximize their potential by discovering their talents and capabilities so they can achieve social re-integration when they are ready to leave our home. During their time in our school the girls continue their education and receive professional psychological attention. We work in conjunction with institutions in the area with whom we have agreements that certify that the girls have comply with the Government Educational requirements. Some girls are allowed to attend school out of our home, others receive home schooling, either because they are behind their regular school grade or need special attention. That is why we also offer government approved home education programs. We follow up with each case until the girls succeed and get their school diploma. To assure the girls not only have an academic development, we also offer different workshops so they can have an alternative career path when leaving the house, they can choose between, Cosmetology, Seamstress, and Artisanship. They also learn English and take IT courses. We are very proud to be able to say that over the years we have rescued from the streets over 320 girls, we have formed more than 70 community leaders and over 50 of our girls have been able to form their own family.
