Building Lifelong Readers, One Family at a Time.
Expanding access to reading and educational support for children and families across the United States.
Our Mission
Barraz Genesis was founded on the belief that literacy begins with connection. We work to increase literacy rates by supporting educators and families in tandem, recognizing that meaningful learning happens both in the classroom and at home. By emphasizing shared reading experiences, consistent routines, and family engagement, we help turn reading into a powerful tool for connection, confidence, and growth.
Our programs are designed to serve underrepresented school districts by providing accessible, inclusive literacy resources, including bilingual books, lesson plans, and hands-on activities that reflect the families we serve.

EMPOWER FUTURES. JOIN THE LITERACY MOVEMENT.
Your donation to Barraz Genesis directly supports family-centered literacy programs by providing books, bilingual reading materials, lesson plans, school supplies, backpacks, and essential school clothing. Together, these resources help families establish consistent reading routines, strengthen learning at home, and ensure children in underrepresented schools have what they need to succeed—academically and beyond.
