NYC… can't wait to see you next month.  I’ll be taking the stage at @RoomtoRead’s New York Gala to support a mission that matters — helping kids around the world get access to education and the opportunity it unlocks.  Music brings people together… and when it’s for a great cause, it’s even better.  Let’s make it a night to remember.

When we talk about improving #literacy, we often focus on #curriculum, #teachertraining or #fluencyrates. All of these matter. But literacy grows inside relationships. A child’s ability to try a new word rests on whether they feel safe, respected, capable. youtube.com/shorts/ouh1--q…

Libraries are often underestimated. They shouldn’t be. We know that when children have access to a well-stocked library, they read more, build stronger literacy skills + lasting reading habits, and grow into more empathetic, curious adults. youtube.com/shorts/mv0Xzn0… #CIES2026
