United Way of Brevard has Little Free Libraries throughout Brevard as part of efforts to improve third grade reading. Research shows that a strong education leads to better employment opportunities and a more competitive workforce. However, there are many children in our community who are not reading on grade level by third grade, making it much harder for them to succeed in school. That is why United Way is working to address this challenge by giving kids in our community greater access to books. Our Little Free Libraries require book refills and maintenance assessments. If you would like to volunteer to refill books and document any maintenance needs at one or several of our little library locations please contact us. We have sites all throughout the county.
