Join STAIR on Tuesday, April 4, 2023, as we host our inaugural breakfast event, Rise to Read, in the beautifully restored Fennec building in downtown Birmingham.
The event will celebrate the impact that our tutors have made over the past 23 years by honoring a group of outstanding current volunteers and spotlighting the work of every STAIR tutor to combat childhood illiteracy.
Join a 1st or 2nd grade student on their literacy journey! Just one or two hours a week is all it takes to help a child become a stronger reader.
The road to a better Birmingham is paved with books.
When a student develops a love of reading, it’s a game changer for them and for the community.

STAIR meets in schools located throughout the Birmingham community. We also have one virtual site to serve students who don't have a STAIR site at their school but who want to be part of the program.
