Kinston Youth Enrichment Project - Preparing Youth for Success

Our Take 5 and Read youth literacy program is designed to foster the love of reading especially in middle and high school students. Students are provided a variety of reading opportunities throughout all of our programs.

With product donations from organizations like First Book, Townsend Press, Sisterhood Agenda, and Embracing the Child, we have been able to distribute over 2000 books, educational toys and magazines to low-income youth to help them begin or enhance their reading collections at home.
