Please Remember to Enlist Today
Uncle Fred's Army© is on a mission to improve early literacy skills so that all children within the Knoxville Community can become powerful readers, writers, and thinkers.
Uncle Fred's Army© is intentionally focused on empowering family and community support outside of school (at home and tutors in community spaces).
Reading is freedom!
We need to increase the visibility and understanding of the illiteracy epidemic in our community and get more people involved.
We need to increase the community's knowledge of the available programs and services offered and identify pathways for which our community-based efforts can grow and thrive.
We want the community to act empowered when it comes to decisions that affect our children's civil right to read.
We want stakeholders to have an active voice in the decisions about our children and access to the tools they need to achieve grade-level literacy. As stakeholders work to ensure children can exercise their civil right to read, they must have choices, options and the necessary support to enable all children to grow their literacy capabilities.
