United Through Reading is a nonprofit organization that strengthens military families' literacy, emotional bonds, and well-being by enabling reading together across distance. The program helps children feel connected to their military parents by recording service members reading picture books, which are then gifted to the child. Participants can use a no-cost, secure app to capture stories at local events or at more than 200 locations worldwide. Based in San Diego, California, the organization operates as a 501(c)(3) public benefit entity, serving military families and veterans. The initiative aims to reduce family stress through routine and to foster a lasting love of reading across ages. In April 2026, United Through Reading announced a collaboration with USAA to host a series of employee engagement events in observance of the Month of the Military Child.
