$5,000 Goal

Founded in 2002, Fort Collins Reads, a 501(c)3 nonprofit, has worked to connect neighbors through literature and speaking engagements with some of the nation’s most recognized authors. As one of the  longest-running community reads programs, we’ve proudly featured everything from staples of young adult fiction like Lois Lowry to award-winning authors like Jennifer Egan and James McBride.  Titles are selected in hope of sparking conversations and addressing topics relevant to local and national issues. While the author presentation, held annually in the fall, is the cornerstone of the event, Fort Collins Reads hopes to ignite interest in literacy and dialogue all year long.

Mission

Fort Collins Reads seeks to strengthen the community through reading and the civil discussion of thought provoking topics for the annual one book, community wide read. Fort Collins Reads is organized to promote understanding, diversity, and tolerance through discussion of our selected books.

Background Statement

Fort Collins Reads is a non-profit literacy program located in Fort Collins, Colorado.
