After almost 14 years of service, Traveling Stories is sad to share it will be closing its doors in November 2023. We’ve reached a point where we do not have the resources we need to continue. We hope our mission will live on through you. Traveling Stories is proof that any ordinary person can make a difference. Our story began with a silly idea in one woman’s head. She couldn't keep that idea to herself and so it grew and grew. It grew into little libraries in South Sudan, El Salvador, Nicaragua, the Philippines and Cambodia. As a result, 3,000 young people gained access to books for the first time! Then it grew into StoryTents at malls and farmers markets. Every child who fell in love with reading at these Tents helped the idea grow even bigger. Soon there were StoryTents in many places including City Heights, El Cajon, Santee, Orange County, Imperial Beach, Vista, Nashville and even Toronto, Canada. This time, the idea helped more than 7,000 young people! This idea got so strong that even a pandemic couldn’t stop it! It morphed into the Virtual StoryTent and started serving families online. In just three years, the idea grew to more than 9,000 hours of 1-on-1 reading support and mentorship for children in 1st-3rd grade. Our chapter is ending, but the idea can continue to grow … with you!
