YOUTH OPPORTUNITY
United Way of Greater Kingsport funds nine programs that support Youth Opportunity—promoting early childhood literacy and creating pathways for every child and youth to reach their full potential.
One of these programs, the Sullivan County Imagination Library (SCIL), is committed to inspiring a lifelong love of reading by providing free books to young children from birth. Each month, SCIL mails approximately 6,400 books to children across Sullivan County, helping ensure they enter kindergarten with a strong foundation in literacy.
All children who reside in Sullivan County, from birth through age five, are eligible to enroll. Once registered, each child receives one free, age-appropriate book by mail every month, equal to 60 books if enrolled at birth.
UNITED IS THE WAY to Youth Opportunity!
