READ Global

READ (Rural Education and Development) Global is a non-profit organization operating in rural South Asia and headquartered in San Francisco, California. Founded on the belief that improved access to educational resources creates lasting social change in developing communities, READ partners with rural villages to build Community Library and Resource Centers (READ Centers).〔http://www.readglobal.org/our-work/vision-and-mission〕 READ Centers offer a variety of programs – from literacy and women's empowerment to information communications technology (ICT) and livelihood skills training. READ currently works with communities in rural Bhutan, India and Nepal.
== History ==
Antonia "Toni" Neubauer founded READ in 1991 as the non-profit arm of her adventure travel company, Myths & Mountains, after being inspired by the simple wish of her Nepalese trekking companion: to have a library in his village. READ began partnering with rural communities in Nepal to build Community Library and Resource Centers, and then paired each center with a for-profit enterprise to sustain the center in the long run.
In 2006, READ Nepal won the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Access to Learning Award〔http://www.gatesfoundation.org/atla/Pages/2006-read-nepal.aspx〕 for its innovative approach to building and sustaining community libraries. READ Global was launched in 2007 with the goal of expanding the model to new countries, and after being awarded a replication grant from the Gates Foundation in 2008, READ began operations in India and Bhutan.
As of August, 2013, READ Global had established 67 READ Centers and 98 for profit enterprises, which they state have a reach of 1.95 million villagers in 171 different villages in Bhutan, India and Nepal.〔http://www.readglobal.org/〕
