Real Men Read is their attempt to mobilize male leaders in the community to act as a positive influence for children by going to read to 3rd grade classes throughout the school district. Learn United is UW effort to close the acheivement gap in our schools. Studies show that if children aren’t reading at their correct grade level by 3rd grade that they will have a bigger chance to be left behind in future grades.

This is the book I read today. I had a blast. I am reading at Shambaugh Elementary and today was “pajama day." These kids have great questions and had a lot of fun as well. I hope I read ok, but I think I did ok.

You can link to the book’s description by clicking the picture.

I believe that social innovation & the power of a healthy neighborhood can transform communities. I'm the husband of Michelle, father to Avery and the soon to be twin Hoffman Boys. We're the H-Train. We live in a historic neighborhood in South Central Fort Wayne. My day job is the Executive Director of NeighborLink Fort Wayne. Photography has quickly become my go to creative outlet that allows me to capture the moments of life that we hold onto dearly for my family and for others.
