About the Fight for Literacy

Since 2013, teams have joined the Fight for Literacy presented by International Paper by hosting a Fight for Literacy Game during their season. Coaching staff and athletes wear #Green4Literacy and call their fans to join the #Fight: raise awareness and funds to support literacy programs in their community. We’re proud to have so many #ChampionsofLiteracy working to provide opportunity through reading to young readers.

Through the Fight for Literacy, over $1 million has been raised to support literacy organizations across the country doing the amazing work of ensuring our nation's kids have the key to be successful in life: Literacy. We are proud to partner with such wonderful institutions that are helping us create more and more #ChampionsforLiteracy so that we can solve the problem of illiteracy in their communities.
